7 Qualifications guide - Post 16 options

A Levels Qualification level: 3 - Assessment: exams What is it? A Levels are two year courses with little coursework or practical assessments followed by an exam. You can still take one year AS-Levels but they will not contribute to your overall final grade. It’s for you if... A Levels are a popular way to get the qualifications required for university, although you can just take them on their own. They’re for you if you get on well with both classroom learning and independent study, and if you enjoy a more academic style of learning. Apprenticeships Qualification level: 2-5 - Assessment: at the end of your training What is it? It’s helpful to think of an apprenticeship as a job, rather than a study programme. You get hired by an employer for a particular role – like hairdresser, veterinary nurse or accountant – and you study while you get paid to do the job. The various levels of apprenticeship are equivalent to GCSEs, A Levels, and Foundation Degrees. It’s for you if... You know what you want to do for a living, you want to work, and you want to get nationally recognised qualifications while you’re at it. Apprentices learn by doing the job, so if you prefer a hands-on approach, it could be ideal.

BTEC Qualifications Qualification level: 2-5 - Assessment: written or activity-based assignments What is it? BTECs are work-focused qualifications that look at the areas of knowledge and skills you might need for a particular sector or industry. You can take them on their own, or alongside other qualifications like apprenticeships and A Levels.You can also choose BTEC Higher National Certificates or Diplomas - sometimes called HNCs or HNDs - which are the equivalent of the first and second years of a degree respectively. These can then be topped up to a full degree with additional study. It’s for you if... you know what sector you would like to work in and you learn better in a hands-on, vocational environment. Or perhaps you’d like a course that gives you some of the academic theory while also preparing you for the workplace. BTECs are increasingly popular for getting into uni – one in four students takes the BTEC route Degree Apprenticeships Qualification level: 6 - Assessment: on-the-job and written / exam What is it? These programmes are developed by employers and universities. So, you do a job, and also a university degree at the same time. That means you learn about work and get paid, and you don’t have to pay uni tuition fees. They are still quite new, so there are a limited

8 number of vacancies although they are growing. It’s for you if... You want a degree without the cost, or simply want to get on with your career but still want degree-level training. International Baccalaureate (IB) Qualification level: 3 - Assessment: exams / coursework What is it? The IB was developed to give students an international understanding along with a balanced education. It is recognised in 153 countries. There are two kinds of IB programme, both studied full-time over two years. IB Diploma Programme (DP): The curriculum is made up of six subject groups, a creative or service project plus an extended essay. IB Career-related Programme (CP) is similar, replacing the project and essay with vocational skills. It’s for you if... You want an academically challenging, wide-ranging education with an international flavour. The IB looks complicated at first but it’s really just about keeping your options open by studying a variety of subjects. It’s another popular way to get into uni, too

National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) Qualification level: 1-7 - Assessment: in the workplace What is it? NVQs are usually taken alongside work. They’re designed to show that you’re competent in the various skills needed to do a particular job and are assessed on the practical work you do. It’s for you if... You want a qualification that ties in with a job, that enhances your career prospects and that you can follow as you gain more skills – once you complete one level, you can progress to the next one. T Levels NEW T Levels are new courses coming in September 2020, which will follow GCSEs and will be equivalent to 3 A Levels. These two year courses offer a mix of classroom learning and an industry placement. The first courses will include: teaching; digital production, design and development; surveying and planning. Keep an eye out for developments!

Traditional Degrees Qualification level: 6 - Assessment: exam / coursework / performance What is it? Traditional degrees last three or four years (full time). They’re more theory-based and academically challenging – students learn to think critically, structure arguments and gain an in-depth understanding of their subject. It’s for you if... You get on well with academic learning and want to totally immerse yourself in a subject. The university experience is unique, offering students the chance to develop and grow both personally and professionally before entering the world of work. 9 Top tips for supporting young people with future careers For parents and teachers

For many young people the world past the end of year 11 can feel overwhelming. It can be difficult for Parents and Teachers to know how to help their children/students make informed choices about their future careers in a rapidly changing world of work. There are hundreds of exciting opportunities and it is never too early to start investigating and exploring the options ahead.

Here are 8 top tips to help you navigate the next few years -

1 All secondary schools are required to provide a programme of careers education and guidance; this should be published on their websites. The Careers programme should include: access to a careers advisor, exposure to the world of work, exposure to further study options, opportunities to meet employers and support and help with applying to the range of post 16 pathways available (i.e. apprenticeships, Further Education, Sixth Form Schools or Colleges or University options).

The schools/academies will be able to direct you to a range of local and national information sources.

2 Whilst it can be useful to share your own experiences, be aware that over time processes and entry requirements have changed and what you had been advised may now be out of date.

3 Many young people have an idea of what they want to do but can be unsure of how they will achieve their goals. If they have particular interests in a career then explore the range of options with them. There could be a variety of ways to start within the chosen area and the entry requirements may be different. After investigating options, if it is not a realistic direction in light of predicted grades, what do they need to do to improve grades or are there alternatives which might not require the same level of qualification?

4 Find out what the demands are for these careers. Often popular industry areas have far more applicants than vacancies. Investigate similar skilled roles in differing industry areas; in the early stages many roles have transferable skills. Explore the options of underrepresented areas such as women in construction, or men in health and social care roles – do not limit the options based on out of date gender limitations. Similarly, research if there is a demand for this within the local area – it could be beneficial researching local and national labour market information informing you of the current skills shortages and demand of sectors local to where your young person is looking for employment.

5 Help the young person to understand what may be involved as part of the job / industry. For example hours, working situations, role expectations, and previous experience needed and how the application process may look– help them to explore options of work experience, volunteering or speaking with employers within the chosen career area.

6 University is one future option; there are now many options to reach higher level qualifications. Whilst university may be required for some subject areas, higher level apprenticeships could be a valid option for the chosen subject area, it is worth exploring all the options. Over the past few years apprenticeships have grown in their availability of academic levels, age ranges, subject areas and learning delivery options. Apprenticeships are a highly valid pathway to follow employment based routes all the way through to degree and postgraduate level as a genuine alternative to university.

7 Encourage your young person to log their achievements and times when they have evidenced a skill that may be relevant for the workplace (i.e. teamwork, patience, resilience, independence, time keeping). This will help support them when writing applications and attending job interviews in the future. Skills and experiences can be transferable and drawn upon from the workplace, study environment, at home as well as in the hobbies your young person is involved in.

8 Continue to talk with your young person about the world of work, it is a moving world that will change for them as they discover more and match their skills, interests, experience and aspirations. Their careers do not have to be fully planned by the end of year 11, however they do need the skills to be resilient when things go differently than their first plans.

Your young person’s learning establishment will be able to help with all the above points and signpost to useful information. Please contact us @ the Post 16 participation website: www.P16P.co.uk
