Has anyone had any training yet? What will we be expected to do for the EV visit? Common opinion is that it will be similar to the old GNVQ style, however, it seems that this varied from centre to centre – any thoughts?

has anyone done the osca for level2?
I have done the test for level 3 business and have been accredited (results last Friday). I don’t see the point in doing the level 2 test as at some stage your centre may wish to offer the level 3 qualification. The only difference is the assesment decisions with regards to the learners work, the rest of the process e.g the IV side of things is exactly the same for both levels. It is a most confusing test and very subjective. The pass mark is rumoured to be around 70% and make sure you put comments in the “optional” boxes in case of a borderline decision, which would be the basis of discussion with an appointed EV if that needed to be the case.
Good luck with your test.
Hi, Does anyone have any assignments for the L3 National unit 2??? (Business resources)

I have completed my unit 1 SOW for level 2. Will send in copy. Let me know if it is any use. Karina
Thanks – that would be great
On second thoughts, it’s not that great – I’m doing 1 next so will have a go at 1 and 2 and post them up soonish! I think we have OFSTED in this term so will have to do them anyway.
There’s a SOW on the link I posted further down the page on the right – did you see this?
Sarah
Hi
I have this book and it is useless! If you have any SOWS for unit 1 & 2 , I will do the others and post them up, early next week.
Regards
Paul
Hi Sarah
Do you have any SOWS for level 2 , units 1, 2, 11, 12? Edexcel say they are not publishing any free materials this year (Ask the Expert!!). Cheeky lot. Let me know if you or anyone can help. Regards
I’m supposed to have but I don’t yet! I’m half way through unit 2 and I’ve been using this:

Anyone teaching BTEC Level 3 Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Unit 2 Need help!!
Elin
I am struggling with this unit. Can the students do the same business idea? Or do they have to be individual. I was thinking of linking this to the international achiever cert but would only work if they could do a plan for the same business.
If you have any SoW or assignment brief would you mind sharing, I have loads of enterprise resources (especially level 2) I will share.
Thanks
Emma
Could really do with some help for unit 1 BTEC National in Business, New Spec. I’m completely new to teaching BTEC so any help at all would be appreciated
Hi. Im in the same boat. How far have you got in completing Unit 1?
I have taught the first part about organisational structure, aims and objectives etc… The students have done P1-4, M1 and D1. I’m moving onto the economics side next term – which is the part I’m less familiar with, so going to have to spend half term reading up on it all.
What did u ask the students to do for P3 and P4? Would it be ok to share ur assignment?
For P3 and P4, they had to talk about the organisational structure of the companies and how these structures affected decisions that were made etc… They had to link it back to the companies aims and objectives and missions and values
Which org structures did they use? I can’t find any that have all the depts listed in the spec
I used John Lewis and the school
Would you please email me a copy of a learners work that has met the criteria? My email is y_pepps@yahoo.co.uk
I am looking for assignments for Foundation learning Unit 14 Working in Business and Administration. This for Level 1
Hi
Has anyone written the assignment for BTEC Level 2 Unit 3 – the financial one!?
Thanks
Elin
Hi all,
Writing some assignments for Unit 17 & am stuck at the first hurdle!! For P1, they have to present their business idea – in the soec it breaks it down to certain ‘criteria’ they have to meet. One of these simply says ‘business planning’. I have checked the text books & there is very little in either one I have.
Anyone any ideas what is required as it seems very vague??? I’m sure I don’t need to tackle a full business plan at that stage??
Thanks
Right fellow Business Teachers. I have now completed quite a few assignments at level 2 and level 3 so would be happy to share. I am going to leave my email here so if anybody would like to contact me I would be happy to share assignments with you.
jenni_delaney@hotmail.com

Hi
I was wondering if anyone can help. I am starting to teach BTEC Business Level 2 in September and have never taught it before and i dont have a clue what to do. Can anyone help with where to start.
Thanks
Hannah
Hi pearson company are good for the new spec if board is edexcel
The EDEXCEL text books are quite good:
There is one for level 2 too. I mostly search the internet to find resources!
Hi there,
I’m introducing Business to my new school and have opted for BTEC. I’ve no experience in teaching BTEC and was wondering if any of you could recommend any good resources (textbooks, teachers packs or interactive software)?
Hi,
I am currently writing new assignments for next year (rather annoyingly as we only started BTEC this year!) luckily I am finding that many of the units have shared info with this year’s units. We are trying to go with the units that we currenlty have info for but we keep finding random new bits thrown in. e.g. in Unit 1. Has anyone got any fun ideas of how to teach the 2nd part if Unit 1 about the Government’s role?
I went on the Edexcel residential launch event last Saturday and was shocked to realise that I hadn’t read Page 9 of the new Level 2 Spec properly, it’s really important to choose units which add up to 60 credits, so no more 6 x units per year, it’s a minimum of 8
So I’ve ordered an inspection copy of the Heinemann textbook & teacher resource pack in the hope of finding inspiration there, at least for the Mandatory Units. Am I the only dur-brain who didn’t read the Spec properly?!
Hi, Im due to teach the 2nd part of Unit 1 after half term and still have no clue as to what to do. What did you do?
Hi
I have draft assignments for unit 1, 2, 11, 12 – these are based on briefs I originally sourced from steaming custard! Thanks to the original poster. I will pass them around for comment and get them Internally verified. I would welcome anything – BTEC 1st Dip units (I will probably have to offer an ICT unit to make up the credits) and BTEC National units.
Thanks – that would be great! I’m sure there would be some grateful recipients.
We are just getting going for next year in our centre. I am not teaching on the First but am doing 5, 10 and 36 on the National. I’m trying to integrate the accounting bit of 2 (Business Resources) into 5 (Business Accounting). I’m hoping to get some of the market research from 36 (business planning) done in 10 (market research). Don’t know if that’s ok or not! I got the impression from a training session that combining units was supported.
Sarah Jenks
Thanks – good to see that they were useful to others
Would be nice to get together and share if we all can!
Hi all
I am just now starting to make use of my gain time to create resources and assignment briefs for the new BTEC level 2 Business specs for September. We will be doing the diploma so I am going to start with the four mandatory units but then have to decide on where to gain the remaining 40 credits from. Any ideas / suggestions would be much appreciated along with sharing the workload to make this easier for us all.
Thanks
Jenni
Hi, am about to do the same. Going on Edexcel BTEC launch event (residential) today at Warwick Uni, will try to make a start on 6 x Level 2 then 6 x Level 3 Assessments for Sep, but don’t expect to get them finished until the Summer hols
Heather
I would suggest you do Units 7&8 (5 credits each) as very easy to address by role plays & presentations which reduces the paper trail and marking time.
I would also suggest Units 11 (customer service), Business online and Business Enterprise. Tempted to trade Business online with Unit 19 – Promotion & Branding
Hi Jenni,
I have just finished the SOW for BTEC but am having some difficulty writing the assignment briefs. If possible would it be okay if you could share briefs you have created it would be MOST appreciated.
I will be teaching UNIT 1.2 & 11
Thanks in advance
