In line with the Government’s advice that teaching and assessment should continue this year, we have prepared guidance to support centres during 2020/21 in the delivery and assessment of our vocational qualifications.
Recognising that the disruption caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic means some students taking vocational qualifications have already experienced lost teaching and learning time, Ofqual has enabled Awarding Organisations to put in place adaptations to qualifications in 2020/21 to mitigate the impact of this disruption and respond to any ongoing or future public health measures so that learners are able to complete their qualification and progress to further study or work.
This centre guidance is to support you and your students to complete assessment, while following public health guidance.
