A moratorium has been put in place on new technical and applied qualifications entering the 16 to 18 performance tables. This will remain until the post-16 qualifications review at level 3 and below has concluded.
The review may lead to significant changes in the qualifications offered by awarding bodies to students. It may also be the case that some qualifications continue to be offered, but are no longer funded by the Department for Education, in which case it would not be appropriate for them to be covered by the YLS contract.
