The current healthcare situation has created a lot of uncertainty, and for young people completing SQA qualifications in school, college or with a training provider or employer, the cancellation of the 2020 exams and coursework assessments has amplified this for them and their parents or carers.

The NPFS understands that you may have lots of questions and will want reassurance that your child will receive results that accurately and fairly demonstrate their skills, achievements and abilities.

SQA is adapting to this unprecedented situation and continues to issue information and guidance to schools and colleges. They are also working with us to get relevant information directly to you.

The FAQs below cover the most recent updates about your child’s SQA Qualifications, and we hope that these provide you with the information you need for some understanding and reassurance of the changes being made due to the coronavirus outbreak.
