Edexcel NVQs in Health and Social Care have been developed in line with the National Occupational Standards for Health and Social Care developed by Skills for Care and Development and Skills for Health. They represent the changes that have occurred in social care practice and form the basis of regulation of the workforce.
The NVQ at Level 2 is the required qualification for 50% of the workforce in regulated care services. It is considered to be the minimum qualification required by a care worker. The NVQ will be appropriate for those working in private care homes and homes run within the public health system.
The NVQ at Level 3 will enable candidates to develop more specialist competencies for use in the Health and Social Care Sector. There are two pathways – one for those whose work role is predominantly with Adults and another for those whose work role is predominantly with Children and Young People.
The NVQ at Level 4 also has two pathways, as described for Level 3, which offer the opportunity for development of specialist and managerial skills in the workplace. It is a requirement of the Care Standards Act 2000 that each registered care service has a registered manager who is responsible for the service.

The NVQs in Children’s Care, Learning and Development replace the NVQs in Early Years Care and Education. The new replacement standards have been written to address the changes which have occurred within the early years sector. The early years sector has seen a period of rapid growth. A review of the sector, specifically functional and occupational mapping, revealed the need to extend the age range of children covered by the NOS/NVQ. The new standards now reflect the outcomes of the Every Child Matters green paper and the Children Act 2004. The Children’s Care, Learning and Development standards now cover 0-16 years of age; similarly this change has influenced the move away from ‘early years’ within the title of the NOS/NVQ.
The level 2 NVQ is appropriate for workers in supervised roles with the exception of childminding in Northern Ireland where a Level 2 qualification is acceptable for unsupervised work. Nearly all Level 2 roles are for those who are working under supervision in face-to-face roles with children and families, examples are a Nursery assistant, Crèche worker or a Special educational needs assistant.
The level 3 NVQ is appropriate for those working independently or in some areas, supervising and training others in their field of work. Examples of job roles at Level 3 are Childminder, Daycare supervisor, Pre-school supervisor, Sure Start worker, Homestart visitor, Community nursery nurse or SureStart development worker
The level 4 NVQ is appropriate for people working in technical and professional jobs, and/or managing and developing others, such as a Childminding network co-ordinator, a Pre-school adviser, a Centre manager, an Area SENCO or a Senior practitioner involving high-level skills with children and families.

At Level 3 the qualification, which offers separate pathways for care of either Adults or Children and Young People, is designed for workers delivering care and support often without direct supervision or working on their own, perhaps in an individual’s own home.
Workers may have some supervisory or developmental responsibility for other care workers or might be involved in specialist tasks with some degree of responsibility or independence. The Level 3 qualifications are particularly relevant to senior care workers, health care workers, home care organisers and community support workers.
Units are also included for substance misuse and mental health workers. The Children and Young People pathway is especially relevant to residential child care workers and foster carers, as well as workers in health, youth justice and educational settings.
