How have Foundation Apprenticeships been adapted to respond to the challenges of Covid-19?
Foundation Apprenticeships have been adapted, where relevant, to enable learners to complete all aspects of the qualification, including the introduction of more flexible approaches to the delivery and assessment of learning, teaching and work placements. This gives greater opportunity for learners to gather their evidence and more variety in the ways employers can engage with the programme.
Here’s the latest guidance for anyone due to finish their Foundation Apprenticeship in 2021.
Pupils will be able to achieve their Foundation Apprenticeship through both physical and remote learning.
SDS and SQA are working together to provide support to all those delivering and benefitting from Foundation Apprenticeships.
Joint work is ongoing to provide learning providers with guidance to help pupils due to finish their Foundation Apprenticeships at the end of 2020/21 Academic Year.
SQA has also written to schools regarding the school/college partnerships on assessments for Vocational Qualifications.
