Course Description

The Accounting and Finance V Level teaches you how to look at the numbers inside a business and use them to make big decisions. Instead of just memorising math equations, you will look at real-life business stories (like why a company is losing money, or whether a business should invest in a new project) and figure out what they should do next. It is a practical, career-focused qualification that you can easily mix with other subjects like A Level Business, Maths, or Economics.

You can expect to study:

  • Financial information and business performance
  • Financial decision-making
  • Ethics, Regulation and Digital Finance

    As this is a brand-new course the above content is indicative and subject to change.

Other Important Information

A V Level is a newer, flexible version of a BTEC that you can start after your GCSEs, beginning in September 2027.


It is a hands-on qualification designed for students who want to study a specific career area but still want the freedom to mix and match their subjects.

It’s the size of one A Level: Because it takes up the same amount of timetable space as a normal A Level, you can take a V Level alongside two standard A Levels.

No long work placements: V Levels are mostly based in the classroom and college workshops.
