We previously shared with you details regarding ‘Centre Assessment Grades’, Virtual Assessment Boards and remote sampling during the Covid-19 restrictions, for qualifications that are covered by Ofqual’s Extraordinary Regulatory Framework, which include the BTEC Higher National suite of qualifications.

As the BTEC Higher Nationals in Healthcare Practice, Healthcare Practice for England and Early Childhood Education qualifications signal occupational competence, Centre Assessment Grades (CAGs) do not apply to these qualifications.

Additional guidance to support you in the assessment and awarding of these qualifications in 2020 to comply with the Ofqual Extraordinary Regulatory Framework can be found below.
