Advanced GNVQ

Advanced General National Vocational Qualification This is similar to BTEC and the equivalent of 2 A levels. The subjects offered have a vocational element such as childhood studies.  GNVQs were phased out between 2005 and 2007. As an alternative, students can choose from a wide range of vocational qualifications – such as BTECs, OCR Nationals, and GCSEs and GCEs in applied subjects. There are also new vocational qualifications on the Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF).
