The Diploma in IT is one of 17 new Diplomas for 14 to 19 year-olds. It provides an inspiring, relevant curriculum which is brought to life with real world materials.

The qualification gives young people a broad range of options after school, from employment to further study in higher education.

Diplomas provide rigorous preparation for higher education in both technical and non-technical disciplines and they are recognised by employers and universities alike.

It is important to understand that Diplomas do have the backing  of a wide range of higher education institutions.
