Education

No one should have to die to get an education.

Edexcel is one of the leading examining and awarding bodies in the UK and throughout the world. There are Edexcel qualifications for everyone, academic, vocational and occupational across the National Qualifications Framework in subjects as diverse as English Literature and Building.

Edexcel qualifications can be taken in schools, colleges, universities or in the workplace. As well as forming the foundation of a person's education, people use our qualifications to top up their professional skills throughout their working lives.

Edexcel was formed in 1996 by the merger of BTEC, the leading provider of vocational qualifications, and The University of London Examinations and Assessment Council (ULEAC), one of the major GCSE and GCE examining bodies.

Edexcel qualifications are offered in over 6000 schools, 450 colleges and nearly 100 higher education establishments and are also offered in over 500 Employer centres and 300 Training Providers. There are approximately two million registrations for Edexcel courses every year.

More females than males are enrolling in universities. What will be the results of a society where the female population has the advantage of higher education over males?

Sixty years ago I knew everything.
Now I know nothing.
Education is a progressive discovery of your own ignorance.

Will Durant

From formal to informal everything new is part of a life of education. What you take from it and what you give to others is how you'll be rated or berated.
