Change the CACHE Qualification to make it a recognised course at Universities.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Allow CACHE qualifications to be recognised and accepted at University as BTEC is recognised and it is the exact same course.
We want this to happen because we are currently studying CACHE Health and Social Care and we have just found out 7 months before leaving college that the course is not acknowledged at some universities. Our college changed our course from BTEC to CACHE without giving us any warning.
We should not have our university options taken away from us because of the college changing the course without warning us.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is a decision for individual universities.
