Living and commercial spaces designer: version 0.0 in development

A version change is routine, but which version an apprentice sits under is not.

Living and commercial spaces designer at Level 6 is now at version 0.0.

Recorded change: Assessment: pending — standard in development.

In development means a new version is being prepared while the current one remains available for starts. You are not blocked, but anything you build on the current version, curriculum, marketing, employer agreements, may need revisiting when the revision lands.

What to do about itconfirm which version each cohort is recorded against in your MIS, because you may be delivering two versions of the same standard side by side. Check whether the assessment plan moved with the version, where it did, your assessment organisation will need to be working to the revised plan. And read the change against the Creative and design route as a whole, since versions often move in batches when a regulator or sector body updates its own requirements.

The figures in the box above come from this standard’s record on the Skills England register. The context and guidance below are ours, and are general to this kind of change rather than specific to your provision.
