General Qualifications Support Programme

The General Qualifications Support Programme is designed to help you to develop your curriculum offer for the new revised A levels and the Extended Project qualification in the context of 14-19 reforms.

This new package of free support is available for all schools with sixth forms, sixth form colleges and further education colleges and their senior leaders and curriculum designers. If you are thinking about introducing the Extended Project qualification, need support implementing the revised A levels or want to develop your curriculum for 16-19 learners in the context of 14-19 reforms, then the programme is for you.

Face-to-face support is available to help you to respond to the changes to A level and to implement the Extended Project qualification. The support will be provided by a Lead Practitioner who is experienced in 14-19 education reforms.

The support can:

be tailored around your support needs
provide resources, including an audit and planning tool, to help you move forward
provide real life case studies, with practical solutions and advice.

The support is flexible and can take place at a time and place to suit you and your centre. This could be in a departmental meeting or as a twilight session and it can be delivered in a format of your choice, for example:

a face-to-face discussion
a group CPD workshop or presentation.

Areas of support could include:

understanding the implications of changes to A levels
introducing the Extended Project qualification to maximise progression opportunities
effective implementation of 14-19 reforms
curriculum design
developing teaching and learning approaches
developing and demonstrating personal, learning and thinking skills (PLTS).
