They have a proven track record in improving motivation and achievement among young learners . Additionally, BTECs provide progression routes to the next stage of education or into employment.  \nWhat are the key principles of BTEC Firsts?  \nTo support young people to succeed and progress in their education, BTEC Firsts have four key design principles embedded.  \n1 Standards: a common core and external assessment  \nEach Level 1/Level 2 BTEC First qualification has an essential core of knowledge and applied skills . We have introduced external assessment appropriate to the sector. This provides independent evidence of learning and progression alongside the predominantly portfolio-based assessment.  \n2 Quality: a robust quality-assurance model  \nBuilding on strong foundations, our quality-assurance model ensures robust support for learners, centres and assessors .  \nWe will make sure that:  \n● every BTEC learner’s work is independently scrutinised through the external assessment process  \n● every BTEC assessor will take part in a sampling and quality review during the teaching cycle  \n● we visit each BTEC centre every year to review and support your quality processes.
