NVQ

NVQs are primarily for those students wishing to work full time within the beauty or hairdressing industry and fall into the following categories:

• Leaving school age 16 – post GCSE
• Leaving school age 17 – post AS levels
• Leaving school age 18 – post A levels

For these students, we recommend a full time commitment of study. Beauty requires two years, hairdressing requires a minimum of one year.

• Age 19 and over wishing to return to study

For these students, NVQs may be studied on a part time basis by selecting individual units, clustering units and/or studying a full qualification at level 2 and/or 3.

Full time NVQ courses commence September of each year.
Part time NVQ courses commence September and March of each year.
