Flipping A-Levels

McDonalds has just been granted Awarding Body status by the Qualifications & Curriculum Authority. This means they will be able to introduce their own nationally-recognised qualifications up to A-level standard (called level 3 by the government) within the National Qualifications Framework.

They plan to start by introducing a Shift Manager qualification that may be the equivalent of an A-level. This is part of a wider government strategy to broaden the range of qualifications available to students within a framework recognised by all employers and educational institutions such as universities.
