Guidance for centres in Scotland
We are committed to making our processes and procedures simple and transparent.
Centre approval
All organisations will need to gain approval from The Prince’s Trust before they can enter learners for units and qualifications. Organisations approved by The Trust are referred to as centres.
For further information on becoming an approved centre and our approved centre policies please see Qualifications Support Pack 00: Centre Handbook (Jan 2017) (pdf, 898kb).
Producing and assessing units
There is no external assessment (exam) for our qualifications. Assessment is by means of a portfolio of evidence which is internally and externally verified.
Learners should be assessed for the level at which they meet the standards for each unit. All learning outcomes need to be successfully covered to pass a unit.
