This qualification is suitable for learners aged pre-16 and above.
The qualification is designed for learners who are considering studying at a higher level and would like to develop their higher level study skills. It enables learners to understand their own strengths and weaknesses and identify areas for further development.
The qualification is particularly relevant for those aged 16-18 who wish to make the most of their programmes of study by including key higher level study skills.
What is a nested qualification?
This qualification is nested. Qualifications within a nested suite allow learners to be topped up to a qualification that is the same level and subject within the Award and Extended Award structure. This can be done by self-service through the Portal. Qualification nests and top-up pricing can be found in our fees list.
