Hi Ashleigh Gray, not sure if it helps at all but we get all our overseas quals checked by Ecctis and translated to the equivalent for Maths & English.
Hi Ashleigh Gray, Ahh ok, Ecctis normally give us an indication of what the equivalent GCSE result would be. If we are ever in any doubt we check with the EPAO and put them on the Maths and English program anyway until we get a definitive answer. HTH
We also use ECCTIS as a database that confirms whether they are equivalent or not. Alternatively you could ask the learner to get a Statement of Comparability but there is a fee for this and the outcome may be that it is not equivalent: https://enic.org.uk/Qualifications/SOC/Default.aspx

We have a learner starting with us soon who has completed her secondary education in Brazil. Is there any guidance regarding qualifications from other countries and whether they are equivalent to level 2 functional skills?
