  7. Entry Pathways Our suite of Entry Pathways qualifications cover a range of subjects and enable centres to support personalised learning programmes for their learners through: • combining units to create programmes of study suited to individual learners’ needs; • eliciting the required assessment evidence from integrated programmes of work at appropriate points during the course; • recognising completion of each unit as well as the qualification as a whole

  8. Entry Pathways Units in the WJEC Entry Pathways are available at four levels: • Entry 1 • Entry 2 • Entry 3 • Level 1 which lead to (three sizes) of qualification • Award (8 or more credits) • Certificate (13 or more credits) • Diploma (37 or more credits)

  9. Entry Pathways Award (up to 12 credits): at least 5 credits must come from units at or above the level of the qualification Certificate (13 or more credits): at least 7 credits must come from units at or above the level of the qualification Diploma (37 or more credits): at least 19 credits must come from units at or above the level of the qualification

  15. Entry Pathways • Entries: • By 21st October for January series (certificates in May) • By 21st March for June series (certificates in October) • Only enter candidates once they’ve completed & passed • No fall-back to lower grade. If put in for E3 but don’t get there, can’t award E2 instead, (they would have to wait until the next sitting for this). • Get credit certificates (for units passed) & qualification certificates if Award/Certificate/Diploma achieved.

  16. Entry Level Certificate Entry Level Certificates in English, Maths and Science are suitable for learners who may not have reached level 3 at the end of Key Stage 3 or are working at a level below that required for a grade 1 at GCSE. They have been designed as a one- or two-year course that can be delivered in schools alongside GCSEs

  17. Entry Level Certificate • Given the changes to qualifications in England and Wales, WJEC thought the time was right to reform the Entry Level Certificate in English, Maths & Science qualifications that have always provided an alternative pathway to those learners working below the lowest attainment at GCSE. • The assessment structure is now more closely aligned with the GCSE qualifications, but still offers a supported route through the curriculum.

  18. Entry Level Certificate

  19. Entry Level Certificate • Learners who are struggling with the accessing an untiered GCSE English & more demanding GCSE Maths & Science examinations. • Learners who need more practical support in achieving their outcomes. • Learners who need confidence building ahead of starting a GCSE qualification. • Learners who need a flexible assessment approach. • Learners who are working below the attainment credited at GCSE.
