We are committed to ensuring that learners continue to benefit from the breadth of content of BTEC qualifications through adaptations in teaching and learning.  \nThis document is intended to provide you with guidance for how you might adapt delivery for the sector’s BTEC qualifications in the academic year of 2021-2022.  \nWe will continue to work with our regulators and relevant sector bodies on any possible adaptations or accommodations in line with the relevant policy and regulatory considerations. Key aspects such as social distancing, safety, lost teaching time, subject content and practical activities have been considered from a sector  \nperspective for your reference. However, it should be noted that all of the guidance provided here must be considered within the context of any relevant guidance issued by your own centre, relevant governing and industry bodies, local and national government.  \nFor further advice and guidance, please refer to the Teaching, Learning and Assessment pages on Pearson’s website or contact us via the Customer Support portal.  \nWe look forward to continuing to support you and your learners throughout this challenging time and wish you well for the coming year.  \nDCL1  \nPublic  \nApproved By: Head of International Product  \nLast updated 17 September 2021  \n2  \nEsports  \nResources  \nTo help you with the delivery of a blended-learning programme, several resources are available.
