How does a BTEC Level 2 certificate (teaching assistant) compare with, say NVQ Level 2 or 3?

A Btec 2 is, IIRC a GCSE eqivalent

will check

Yes, a level 2 Btec is a level 2 qualification which is the same as a GCSE a* to C grade or a GNVQ level 2

oh bum. That's not what I wanted to hear

have a shufti here incase I got it wrong

Thanks mb

BTEC level 2 same level as GCSEs (Normally worth about 5) Think (and I stand corrected) BTEC level 2 it is the same level as NVQ level 2.
