NVQs
An NVQ is a vocational qualification, which means it includes practical, work-related tasks. It’s a good choice if your child knows what job they want to do, as they’ll receive training in a specific line of work and be able to prove their practical ability to future employers.
What subjects can my child study?
There are more than 1,000! Everything from engineering to beauty therapy.
Students don’t need any qualifications to get started, although they might need to complete an NVQ Level 2 before starting a Level 3 programme. Level 3 is equivalent to two A levels.
