Pearson response to Post-16 Level 3 Review Phase Two
Pearson fully supports the government’s ambition and commitment to raising the status of technical and vocational education.
However, policy makers must be mindful of the consequences of disrupting and damaging the current system. We welcome the introduction of T Levels but worry that current proposals put at risk existing high-quality qualifications that work, be they BTECs or other vocational qualifications.
Our response to the latest comnsultaiton phase sets out the case for retaining elements of the system that serve learners and employers well, as well as enhancing the stature of vocational and technical education.
