BTEC Programme

At Gloucestershire Scouts we offer a new level 2 (GCSE level) qualification for Young Leaders:

BTEC Level 2 in Teamwork and Personal Development in the community

There are two levels you can go for:

  1. The Diploma (6 units) or
  2. Extended certificate (3 units).

Everyone completes module 1 and then you can choose 2 or 5 optional units from the list below.

The great news is that if you have completed your Young Leader Award and / or DofE most of the practical work is already completed through recognised prior learning (RPL).

You can download the guide to the recognised prior learning here.

This award is open to people who meet the following criteria:

  • In year 12 or 13 (you must have completed year 11 to start)
  • Completed Bronze, Silver or Gold DofE award and/or completed or planning to complete the Young Leader Award
