How NEC supports your students’ learning
All NEC’s courses are designed to be flexible so the learner can work at their own pace. This means that your students will be able to fit their independent study schedule around your timetable requirements and any other commitments they may have. They can access their course online wherever they are, whether they are at school, home or on the move. With course materials and assignment feedback from NEC, and input from your school’s nominated mentor/teacher, students will have the support they need to excel.
Exams and non-exam assessment (NEA)
As a school or college, you would normally be responsible for entering students for the exams. Should this not be possible for some reason, we can offer students a place at one of our partnership exam centres in the UK.
Many of NEC’s GCSE and A level courses now include non-exam assessment. For the subjects NEC offers, this could be a practical endorsement, spoken language endorsement or written coursework.
As an approved centre, NEC is able to mark and authenticate coursework through our exams service. We are also able to offer venues that accommodate the endorsements.
