I'm afraid that I don't know much about the Part I but I have been i/c AVCE and Adv GNVQ ICT for 2 years and had so much grief trying to deal with Edexcel in that area that we deserted them for OCR who are leagues better in terms of support.

If the person at Edexcel responsible for helping you with this is either Barry Roberts or Eddie Allman, I advise you to leave them ASAP - they are far from competent

Yours,

Subject: Re: Edexcel and GNVQ

Does anyone know what edexcel are doing about intermediate GNVQ? Literature from Edexcel states clearly enough that VGCSE will replace part 1 and a QCA web page on the consultation process states that VGCSE is intended to replace Part 1, Foundation and Intermediate GNVQ.

A colleague phoned Edexcel earlier today to be told that Intermediate GNVQ was not being replaced by VGCSE. Unaware of the earlier call I phoned Customer Services later in the day to be told that it definitely was replacing all three qualifications. Needless to say planning and promotion for Sept 2002 is rendered difficult!

Can anyone help?
