We’re currently updating our Vocational Award for delivery from September 2022.  Draft versions of the Specification and SAMs are now available. We’re excited to share our new developments with you and will be running introductory events in the coming months as well as sharing new teaching and learning resources ahead of delivery.


The Level 1/2 Vocational award in Retail Business has been approved for the DfE 2021, 2022 and 2023 performance tables and will remain available to centres. 

Unit 3 - for Summer 2020 and 2021, centres have a choice to use the original scenario and task (ELaR), or the new scenario (JJ's). For Summer 2022 onward, centres must use the new scenario (JJ's).

Our Level 1/2 Award in Retail Business specification introduces learners to one of the most important employment sectors in the UK.

Learners have the opportunity to explore various aspects of retail business and investigate a range of retailers from large chains and department stores through to independent and virtual stores.
