What is an A Level?
Advanced level qualifications (known as A levels) are subject-based qualifications that can lead to university, further study, training, or work. At Archway you can study three or four A levels over two years. They’re usually assessed by a series of examinations, although many also include an element of coursework.
What is a BTEC/Cambridge National?
BTECs and Cambridge Nationals are specialist work-related qualifications that can lead to university, further study, training, or work. These courses combine practical learning with subject and theory content. They have a higher content of coursework than most A Levels, but there is also an examined element.
