Gateway Qualifications recognises the financial and operational pressures currently affecting colleges and training providers across the further education and skills sector. As part of our continued commitment to supporting Centres, we are pleased to confirm that we will be freezing our prices for the 2026–27 academic year.
This means that Centre fees, qualification prices and EPA fees will remain unchanged for the next academic year, providing Centres with greater certainty at a time when rising costs, funding constraints and workforce challenges continue to impact the sector.
Fabienne Bailey, Chief Executive of Gateway Qualifications, said:
“As a registered charity, we seek to offer our products and services at the lowest viable price to enable as many organisations and learners to benefit from them as possible.
We recognise the significant challenges that colleges and training providers are facing, from cost pressures and funding uncertainty to increasing learner needs. Freezing our prices is a deliberate decision to support the sector and ensure that as many Centres and learners as possible can benefit from our offer.”
