Your main aim is to enable your level 2 post-16 students to successfully reach their chosen aspiration, be it an apprenticeship, employment, or higher levels of study (AAQ, A level, T Level or Technical Occupational Entry qualification) .  \nOur BTEC First and BTEC Technical qualifications enable you and your students to choose the right qualification to ensure that every young person undertakes a high quality, coherent study programme that is appropriate to their career and study aspirations.  \nOur post-16 English and maths offer has everything you need to support your students gaining GCSE grade 4 or level 2 FSQs.  \nOur BTEC WorkSkills and BTEC Personal Growth and Wellbeing qualifications support the development of much needed skills, behaviours, attitude, and confidence that are needed for progression.  \nWhat is a Level 2 Study Programme?  \n➔ A programme of learning specifically designed for 16– 19-year-olds to develop their knowledge, skills, experience, and behavious.  \n➔ It should support progression onto higher levels of study or an apprenticeship.  \n➔ Delivered over 1 academic year with a minimum of 540 planned hours.  \n➔ Often utilises level 2 qualifications, including English and/or maths, vocational and/or technical skills, transferable skills and behavious, and  \nwork/employability experience.  \nImage © [PeopleImages.com-Yuri A / Shutterstock](PeopleImages.com-Yuri A / Shutterstock)  \nHow can Pearson support you with your Level 2 Study Programme?  \n\n| English and Maths |\n| --- |\n| • GCSE\u003Cbr>• Functional Skills\u003Cbr>• ESOL |\n\n| Vocational and Technical Skills |\n| --- |\n| • BTEC First\u003Cbr>• BTEC Technical |\n\n\n| Work Experience and Preparation |\n| --- |\n| • WorkSkills\u003Cbr>• Digital Functional Skills |\n\n\n| Personal Development |\n| --- |\n| • Personal Growth and Wellbeing |\n\nGetting started  \nYour student’s study programme should be as unique as they are. It should be tailored across the components to give them the support, motivation, knowledge, skills, and behaviours they need to progress.  \nEach student will come to you having had a mix of experiences at Key Stage 4; they will have different achievements at GCSE and a range of educational levels and personal/social development.  \nThere is a clear link between high-quality advice and guidance and student retention. Choose what suits your students, work with them through their diagnostic and guidance period to really build a tailor-made programme that will excite and motivate them to stay on track and succeed.  \nFor initial diagnostic to be highly effective, fully assess students’ existing knowledge and skills in relation to the content of their progression aspiration. Use this information to plan a programme that fills any gaps in knowledge and helps students to develop the required skills.  \nEnglish and maths  \nAchieving a level 2 qualification in both English and maths (GCSE grade 4+ or Level 2 Functional Skills) helps students to progress to further study, training and skilled employment.  \nThe English and maths condition of funding ensures all 16-19-year-olds have the best chance of achieving this standard.  \nPearson offer:  \n•  GCSE English and maths  \n•  Entry, L1 and L2 Functional Skills in English and maths  \n•  Entry, L1 and L2 English for Speakers of Other Languages ( ESOL)  \nImage © LightField Studios / Shutterstock  \n➔ GCSE (9-1) maths  \nPearson provides a specific qualification and specification to support your post-16 students.
