BTEC Results 2020

Following an announcement by Pearson (the awarding body for BTEC), our Level 2 results which were due to be released on 20 August have now been delayed and the Level 3 are undergoing a review.

Following Ofqual’s announcement that A Level and GCSE students are to receive Centre Assessment Grades, Pearson have reviewed the impact on BTEC students and decided to apply the same principles.

We would like to reassure our students that we are doing everything we can to get the grades to you as soon as we receive them from the awarding body and that your grades and university place will not be adversely affected by the delay which is a national issue. It has now been confirmed that all eligible learners will receive their results by Friday 28 August 2020.

We will be in touch with those students directly affected today by email – thank you for your patience.

In the meantime, please use the chat function on our website, or contact our Exams team on: examinations@bcot.ac.uk if you have any specific questions or concerns about your results.

Can I re-sit at BCoT if I’m not studying there in September?

If you received a GCSE grade through BCoT in August 2020, then yes you can take a Maths or English exam in November, but there is a cost of approximately £100.  If you wish to do this, please contact our exams department examinations@bcot.ac.uk to confirm the fees and arrange to take the exam as an external candidate.

Other Qualifications 2020

As you are aware, many learners will be awarded calculated grades for their qualifications this year. The grades which have been sent to exam boards have been put through a standardisation and quality assurance process before they are confirmed back to us. This means that results for different qualifications are issued on different dates. Results for qualifications completed this year will be available on your dashboard. Below are details of when your result is likely to be available.

Certificates
If you have completed your qualification, you will receive an email to let you know when your certificate is available. After confirmation of your address, it will be posted to you. If you are returning to College in 20/21, your certificate will be held until your qualification is completed.

If you have any enquiries or concerns, please do get in touch by message on the webchat or email us at examinations@bcot.ac.uk.
