Potential National Changes to BTEC Extended Diploma Level 3 Courses


We have an important update regarding BTEC Extended Diploma Level 3 Courses.

At this present time, the government is reviewing whether to withdraw funding for certain BTEC courses starting from September 2025. As a result, we cannot guarantee that the following courses will be available next year:

We hope to have further information and clarity from the government in December/January. We will provide further updates on this page as soon as we have more information.

In the meantime, we advise that applicants should consider alternative options, should the course be withdrawn. We advise them to still apply for the potentially affected course and we will discuss alternative options with them at their interview.

Thank you for your understanding, and please feel free to contact our admissions team at admissions@bolton-sfc.ac.uk if you have any questions or concerns.
