About our BTEC qualifications

Find out about our BTEC qualifications

We offer a range of fantastic BTEC qualifications to suit all ages and abilities.

Learners can enrol with us as early as 13 on a BTEC Level 1, progressing to a BTEC Level 2 in Teamwork and Personal Development in the Community.

We recognise that all young people learn differently, which is why we’ve developed our BTECs to be as accessible as possible. The qualifications provide valuable recognition of ‘soft skills’ such as teamwork, resilience and citizenship – potential game-changers whether you’re applying to university, considering an apprenticeship or just looking to add another string to your bow.

When I first heard about CVQO I was only in secondary school, finishing my GCSEs, so for me to have the option to gain a BTEC Level 2 so early on was huge since I knew only a select few would have a qualification like this at my age.
