This summer will see the first awarding of the decoupled AS in England, reformed AS in Wales, and reformed Advanced Highers in Scotland.
To support teachers and advisers, UCAS has developed a series of resources to explain the key changes and their impact on applying to UK higher education. These include:
- short videos that summarise the key changes to qualifications
- qualification reform statements from universities and colleges, explaining how they will accommodate qualification reform
- a qualification reform timeline, giving details of subjects and qualifications which will be offered in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, and new videos explaining how providers are taking this into account
- FAQs to answer the most common questions we've received about qualification reform, including what to include in the reference
- an online guide to what is happening around the UK
If you have any suggestions or feedback about our resources, please email Ben Jordan, Senior Policy Executive, at b.jordan@ucas.ac.uk.
