KIKPOP99 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hi We previously used to use the CWDC qualification checker to ascertain if a qualification was acceptable. I believe that CWDC no longer exists. Can anybody please tell me how I now go about to check if a staff qualification is acceptable? Separately (but related) I have a staff that did a qualification in Spain. She has now produced a NARIC letter confirming that the qualification is equivalent to level 5. Do I just accept this or are there further checks I can carry out. Thanks sat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildflowers Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 The Teaching Agency have taken over the role of the CWDC. They should also be able to answer about the foreign qualification, as CWDC helped us with one from Holland n the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 The qualifications checker is on the DfE website. You can see it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
