BTEC Nationals in Music and Music Technology: November 2021 update

Adaptations for assessments in 2021-22

There are adaptations that are in place for this academic year if they are needed. You should plan to deliver and assess units/components as normal but if this isn't possible then you can use the adaptations that apply to your qualification.

We have confirmed the in-unit adaptations for all BTEC qualifications and the approach to streamlined assessment that can be used this academic year, if needed.

External Assessments

All BTEC external assessments for 2021/22 are expected to go ahead. In light of feedback from centres, the January series will commence one week later (from 12 January) with results day moving to 23 March. The February series will also commence one week later (from 7 February) with results day moving to 6 April.

Final timetables for January, February and March 2022 are now up on the website and included in the BTEC External Assessment Overview document.

The summer 2022 exam timetables have been finalised and published.
