This diploma is developed jointly between MCI, Crossfields Institute and CACHE. It is the first Montessori qualification to be regulated by Ofqual on the NQF.
As this qualification is a UK qualification, there is a need for the understanding of the different levels of their qualifications. This page explains the different NQF Level qualifications.
A Level 3 qualification is equivalent to GSCE A Levels, or STPM/ Form Six (For Malaysians)
A Level 4 qualification is equivalent to a UK BTEC Professional Diploma Level.
In essence, the Diploma is a pre-university qualification.
