Subject Working Groups - Have Your Say

Work to develop the new national qualifications, which will support Curriculum for Excellence, is well underway and stakeholders have the opportunity to be directly involved in the qualifications development process.

SQA is setting up Subject Working Groups (SWGs) in subject areas to participate in the development of the products for the new qualifications and is looking for teaching professionals to assist in this work.

SWGs will be established from summer 2010 to carry out discrete pieces of work, for example, the rationale and course summary, Unit specification or Unit support packs for a particular subject area.  They will be directed by the relevant Qualifications Design Teams (QDTs) who are working on the design of qualifications within individual subjects.

If you or your colleagues are interested in helping to develop the next generation of National Qualifications, submit a ‘Register of Interest' form available on the SQA website.
