At Gateway Qualifications, we regularly review our qualifications to ensure they continue to meet the needs of Centres, learners and employers, and reflect current practice across the sectors we serve.
This ongoing review process gives Centres confidence that the qualifications they deliver remain relevant, robust, and fit for purpose, while supporting learners in developing skills that matter.
As part of our latest review cycle, we looked at a wide range of qualifications. Many were confirmed as already working well and requiring no changes, reinforcing their continued relevance. Take this opportunity to explore our qualifications and plan with confidence.
Where updates were needed, these have been carefully designed to strengthen alignment with industry expectations, progression routes and real-world practice, while maintaining clarity and ease of delivery.
Our dedicated Qualifications being Updated page outlines the specific changes to teaching from 1st August 2026, including a Summary of Changes document for each updated qualification.
We hope this information is helpful as you plan ahead. If you have any questions or would like support with curriculum planning, our team is available to help. Visit our Contact Us page for details.
