BTEC Nationals Health and Social Care and Applied Psychology
What we know about the Pause and Review
The pause and review that was issued by the new Government does not affect the BTEC Nationals that are on the defunding list for 2025.
At this time we have to carry on business as usual. We do not know what the result of the review will be.
We are still going ahead with the roll out of the new AAQs and assume the old style nationals will be defunded. This means the September 2024 cohort is the last that is funded at this time.
As soon as we have more information after the review in December we will let everyone know.
Training Events for the new AAQs
There are new training events for Health and Social Care and Medical Science.
