Help shape the future of qualifications
We’d love to hear your thoughts on how you choose between General Qualifications (such as GCSE and A Level) and Vocational Qualifications (such as BTEC)—especially for subjects with lots of coursework.
Your insights will help us build a curriculum that truly supports students’ learning journeys and career goals.
Tell us what matters to you by the end of October. Your feedback will guide decisions for upcoming school years.
