Hello all, I'm going to try and keep this as simple as possible. I've recently gotten myself into an Access to Higher Education course. All went well and I have been offered a place. My tutor picked up on something though. She said that I may have to redo my English GCSE. I was shocked as I had my certificate right in my hand proving that I have an A grade in English Language. She then proceeds to tell me that 'I'm not entirely sure, but I do not think that you actually have a GCSE in English'. I am obviously confused, I was in top sets at secondary and took the exact same exam as everyone else. So I highly doubt that everyone who went to my secondary school left without GCSE's. She must be confused. She then proceeds to point out some things on my certificate. This is what it says: ONE SUBJECT LEVEL 1/ LEVEL 2 CERTIFICATE IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE. I took my GCSE's in 2016. Anyways, my question is. Does anyone else's certificates say this? and can anyone else let me know if I actually have a GCSE. I would be surprised if I didn't because as I said I have taken the exact same exam as the rest of my year. Many thanks all, sorry if I was rambling!

A level 2 qualification is equivalent to a GCSE, same as a level 3 qualification with A-levels
