There are some negative perceptions around doing a BTEC instead of A-level, how many of you are considering doing a BTEC?
New research shows that more BTEC students than ever are going to university these days. Since 2008 the number of BTEC students going to uni has grown by 113% (compared to A level students attending growing by just 7% in the same period)!
We did some research that found BTEC students are more career focused, more likely to set up their own business and less likely to take a gap year. BTEC students are 15% more likely to know where they want their career to go and are very driven, compared to those doing the traditional A level route.
Very interesting!
What do you guys think? Considering doing a BTEC?
