How can I give you feedback on the draft specifications?
We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the draft specifications, we have created a short survey that can be found here:
- Engineering Design feedback
- Engineering Manufacture feedback
- Engineering Programmable Systems feedback
You can leave your name and contact details if you would like to be contacted about your responses or, if you prefer, complete it anonymously.
When can I find out more about the redeveloped qualification?
We are running a series of subject virtual roadshows for you to find out more and ask questions of our Subject Advisors.
These sessions will include;
- An overview of the redeveloped qualifications
- Key changes to topic areas in the specific subject specifications
- The approach to terminal assessment
- An outline of the support and resources we'll be providing to help you plan and teach.
These are designed for teaching staff who are either new to these qualifications or those who are delivering our current Cambridge Nationals.
