Post-16 Level 2 and below study and qualifications in England: Call for Evidence

Closed 14 Feb 2021

Opened 10 Nov 2020

Overview

We're seeking views on programmes of study at level 2 and below for students aged 16 and above.

Why your views matter

This call for evidence is part of the review of post-16 qualifications at level 3 and below in England. We want to improve study at level 2 and below, ensuring that students have clear and coherent pathways to good outcomes. Before we set out detailed proposals, we want to know more about what is working and what more level 2 study needs to do to support all students.

This call for evidence brings together the range of issues we want to explore, inviting views and evidence from interested parties.
