JCQ General Regulations for Approved Centres (section 5.3) states that centres must manage conflict of interests by informing the awarding bodies, before the published deadline for entries, of:
- Any members of centre staff who are taking qualifications at their own centre which include internally assessed components/units
- Any members of centre staff who are teaching and preparing members of their family (which includes step-family, foster family and similar close relationships) or close friends and their immediate family (e.g. son/daughter) for qualifications which include internally assessed components/units.
In order to notify us of a possible conflict of interest you will need to complete an online form.
