30 BTEC at LLANISHEN HIGH SCHOOL

31 What are BTEC qualifications?? BTEC s are work-related qualifications suitable for All students. BTEC s are built to accommodate the needs of employers and allow progression to university. They provide a practical, real-world approach to learning. They can be taken alongside, or in place of, GCSE s and A levels.

32 BTEC s have been around for nearly 30 years and their reputation is second to none. They're recognised by schools, colleges, universities, employers and professional bodies across the UK. They offer natural progression along a vocational path, from and to academic qualifications and university.

33 BTEC PROVISION Each BTEC is made up of units. The number of units is dependent on the level and size of BTEC being studied e.g. BTEC Award = 4 units studied BTEC Certificate = 6-8 units studied BTEC Extended Certificate = 8-10 units studied.

34 Therefore students will be offered EITHER; The AWARD = 120 HOURS of teaching = equivalent to 1 GCSE (1 option column) Or The CERTIFICATE = 240 HOURS of teaching = equivalent to 2 GCSE s (2 option columns) Or The EXTENDED CERTIFICATE = 360 HOURS of teaching = equivalent to 3 GCSE s (2 option columns)

35 Final Points Most of the BTEC subjects are still 100% coursework. For a minority of BTEC qualifications there WILL BE A SHORT EXAM worth 25% of the final grade. There is a limit on the amount of BTEC qualifications that students will be allowed to take in 2017 and this is 2 BTEC s worth 2 GCSE s each or 4 BTEC s worth 1 GCSE each. For more information see Mr Charles (QN & BTEC Sport) or Mrs Leon (Lead Internal verifier BTEC Health and Social Care).

36 Recap of Vocational courses offered at LHS: BTEC Construction and the Built Environment BTEC Engineering BTEC Health and Social Care BTEC Sport and Outdoor Education IVQ Hospitality BTEC Performing Arts BTEC Vocational studies BTEC Jamie Oliver Home cooking BTEC Personal Finance

37 How to take these BTEC Sport and Health and Social Care all take up 2 of the option choices This means both BTEC Sport and Health and Social Care will give you 2 grades equivalent to 2 GCSE s minimum ALL BTEC QUALIFICATIONS ARE GRADED IN LINE WITH GCSE SUBJECTS and are therefore seen as having equal equivalence to GCSE s.

38 Next steps. Completion of Careers Wales online Free Choice survey From this, option columns have been devised that allow broad & balanced choices and as many student preferences as possible All students will be interviewed by SLT on their targets and future choices (Feb) Learning Pathways booklet/careers Wales online/options forms/assembly talks all available Full written report - 29 th February 2016 Year 9 Parents Evening Tuesday 8 th March 2016 Students make final choices Thursday 10 th March Viable choices are timetabled
