the trouble is when people have done nvqs they seem to think that the FD is the next step , it is BUT it is a completely different sort of learning, it is academic and the essays are a far far higher calibre. they are not reflective that is a none starter they should be analytical and critical. i can always tell when i have a student who has come the nvq route, they find it so hard to write and fail and resit again and again. LAs should really pay for an academic writing course first as it makes all the difference. you cannot pass an FD writing in the same way as an nvq 4 or 5.
