Terms of reference for EPRS in summer 2021

25/06/2021
ASCL response to consultation on the terms of reference for EPRS in summer 2021. 
 
Question 1: To what extent do you agree or disagree with our proposal that AEA qualifications awarded in summer 2021 should be in scope for the EPRS?

Agree. AEA qualifications have been included in the GQAA framework in summer 2021 and should therefore be in scope and part of the EPRS.

Question 2: To what extent do you agree or disagree with our proposal that for summer 2021 EPRS should consider only those qualifications awarded under the GQAA framework?

Disagree. All qualifications, including those issued under the VTQ framework, should be included so that all learners are treated consistently by awarding organisations.
