Cambridge Nationals

Whether you are brand new to vocational qualifications, or moving from another awarding organisation, our aim is to support you in offering Cambridge Nationals. All Cambridge Nationals are recognised on the 2020 Performance Tables (with the exception of our ICT product), so you can be confident in offering qualifications that meet your centre’s and students’ needs.

On this page you will find case studies from centres already delivering Cambridge Nationals, as well as key documents to help you get started.

Let us know you are teaching Cambridge National by completing a Teach with OCR form. We can then keep in touch with you, and ensure you receive up-to-date information from us, including details of upcoming CPD events and additional resources.

We support you and your exams officers with CPD webinars focussing on administration of Cambridge Nationals.

If you want to understand more about the suite, our summary brochure gives an overview and Cambridge Nationals explained answers the more technical questions you might have.
