Accreditation

At Thriftwood College, students have the opportunity to experience a range of subjects in order to develop themselves in their strengths and build on areas of development.

Some subjects may be studied to accreditation level, from Year 10 onwards.  We are very proud of the external accreditation that our students achieve, which ensures their successful transition and prepares them for the next step in their learning journey. 

Examinations are taken at Thriftwood College, which is a registered exam centre for AQA, NCFE, The Leadership Skills Foundation and The Duke of Edinburgh scheme.  Further information can be found below and on the Department for Education's website at Find and compare schools in England - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

The JCQ should not be confused with Ofqual (Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation), which holds the authority to regulate and accredit British examination boards.
