Ofqual to remove the Qualification & Credit Framework (QCF) rules
Ofqual have announced that after careful consideration that they have decided to withdraw the QCF rules that regulate the structure of qualifications awarded under that framework. All the qualifications currently issued by Logic Certification will continue to be regulated by Ofqual but the structure under which they are regulated will change over time, as may the unit and credit structure.
Ofqual have stated that the decision to withdraw the QCF rules was made after consultation and due to the current rules not always supporting the development and delivery of valid qualifications. Ofqual expects the process of withdrawing the QCF rules to start in summer 2015 at the earliest and will consult on the implementation plans for change in the New Year. The full outcome of the consultation can be found at here
Learners and centres are assured that Logic Certification’s qualifications will continue to be regulated by Ofqual and the Welsh Government, recognised by industry and available for delivery via its network of approved centres.
