The BTEC National Diploma in Business uses a combination of assessment styles to give students the confidence to apply their knowledge and succeed in the workplace whilst developing the study skills to continue learning on higher education courses and throughout their career. The range of vocational assessments – both practical and written – mean students can showcase their learning and achievements to best effect when they take their next step, whether that’s supporting applications to higher education courses or potential employers. The BTEC National Diploma is equivalent to two A Levels and it is assessed both internally and externally through coursework, tasks and a written exam. So if coursework brings out the best of your skills and abilities, then this may be suitable for you. Coursework can include written assignment work, team working activities, presentations, financial calculations on spreadsheets and website design. The department staff will assess your work and you will be given a final grade, that will be equivalent to A Levels and which have UCAS points. The grades range from Distinction*Distinction* (equivalent to A*A* at A Level) to Double Pass (equivalent to CC).
