A list of entry level qualifications approved by the Secretary of State and other Ofqual regulated qualifications is published online at

http://register.ofqual.gov.uk/Qualification.

These are the qualifications that can be available to pupils under the age of 19 with special educational needs in maintained special schools, academies and free schools. Non-maintained special schools can offer a range of qualifications which are approved under section 98 of the 2000 Act. It is for the school to choose which of these qualifications are suitable to meet the needs of its particular pupils.
