NextGen: HN news

We wrote to pilot centres on 17 February with an update on our review of the NextGen: HN programme – originally announced in June 2022. The review focuses on the prototype qualifications currently in the pilot. and involves carrying out project level and prototype evaluation. 

We remain committed to progressing NextGen: HN while giving pilot centres time to reflect and plan. While there are no plans to expand or add additional qualifications to the pilot during session 2023-24, we look forward to continuing work with our pilot centres.   

Continued success of the NextGen: HN programme is critical in providing qualifications fit for the future and we are grateful for everyone who is participating in this review.  

Our dedicated web page – www.sqa.org.uk/nextgen – has information about the NextGen: HN programme as well as links to webinars. This page also links to our blog site where we will shortly add information about how we engaged with learners during the evaluation.   

If you have any questions about the review of the NextGen: HN pilot phase please email nextgen@sqa.org.uk.
