Students completing their BTEC Nationals in Applied Science will be aiming to go into employment, often via the stepping stone of higher education. The Extended Certificate is designed for learners who are interested in learning about the sector alongside other fields of study, with a view to progressing to a wide range of higher education courses, not necessarily in applied science. The BTEC is designed to be taken as part of a programme of study that includes other appropriate BTEC Nationals or A Levels, but fits in best to the Careers Plus programme.
Grade 5 in Combined Science and Maths GCSE alongside five GCSEs at Grade 4 OR at least 3 GCSE subjects at Grade 4 alongside alternative GCSE equivalent requirements (Standard Level 3 vocational entry requirements apply).
Externally assessed examinations - all learners take the same assessment at the same time, normally with a written outcome. Internally assessed set tasks - learners take the assessment during a defined window and demonstrate understanding through completion of a vocational task.
