SFCA's response to #Budget2021 #SpendingReview2021: details to be worked out, but much to be cautiously optimistic about. We're particularly pleased that the Post-16 Capacity Fund will be expanded - read more: https://t.co/IUG6x9fcBq

The momentum to #ProtectStudentChoice keeps growing - proud to have @YEUK2012 on board! From their work with young people and employers, Youth Employment UK know how vital keeping BTECs is for both students and the economy.

Did @michelledonelan hint the great BTEC cull might be watered down? Tells @CommonsEd the media "sold a story...that there will be a binary choice between a-levels and t-levels" But that's "certainly not the direction of travel - we know many BTECs produce excellent outcomes"

This is welcome and encouraging from @michelledonelan (although the Wolf Review actually said that BTECs were“valuable in the labour market and a familiar and acknowledged route into higher education”). #ProtectStudentChoice https://t.co/RLlZnzU4nb

Very pleased to welcome @GuildHE to the #ProtectStudentChoice campaign this week - every year, thousands of young people study HE courses at their brilliant members. We must safeguard their continued ability to do so by keeping BTECs.

@rach_hopkins @nadhimzahawi @LutonSixthForm @SFCA_info Thank you all for your valuable time in discussing such an important issue. Evidence led decisions are the only thing we are asking for. We have plenty of data! BTECs are at the centre of social mobility + work WITH A levels and would perfectly complement T-levels.

Brilliant to see the momentum that the #protectstudentchoice campaign is getting. Hopeful that @educationgovuk recognise the damage that will be done if AGQs are blindly defunded. Thank you to all involved for continuing to be the voice of the students in post-16! https://t.co/3Rhim5MgkG

Youth Ambassador Euan tells us “I still rely on the research lead learning skills that I gained by doing a BTEC which was a good balance of course work, analysis, examinations and real-life experiences.” https://t.co/zZexwh158G #ProtectStudentChoice #YouthVoiceCensus https://t.co/kDmoBKuUCL
