Mission Statement
The AATT is proud to offer all students the opportunity to re-visit any course
studied again FOC. This stands us apart from the rest. We are happy to offer a
day ‘Refresher’ course where a student only requires ONE day of a multiple day
course
Class Numbers
Class numbers are considerably less than other teaching establishments. We
offer ‘Fast Track’ courses and a student must therefore be ‘able to’ complete a
course of this nature in terms of: English Language, Written Assignment, ESOL
and Knowledge.
Certification
Certificates are issued in the name stated on the application form. Certificates
will not be sent if any fees are outstanding. Please allow up to 8 weeks for the
certificate to be produced. The Angel Academy reserve the right to issue
certificates when the student is deemed to be capable. Course attendance does
not ensure automatic certification.
Exam Papers and Tests by Email or Post
It is our responsibility to issue exam and test papers to a student when
promised. The student must allow up to 14 days for receipt (BABTAC
accreditation only). The Angel Academy hold complete responsibility over
when/how they conduct their process of testing a student and when we feel your
level of knowledge and capability is certifiable.
Homework
Please allow up to 4 weeks for marking homework which is BABTAC accredited.
VTCT Portfolio and Submission of Assignments
After submission of completed assignments/portfolio, please allow 6-8 weeks for
marking. This must be considered by each student prior to submission of work.

portfolio for legal purposes and other purposes it considers important for 6-12
weeks after completion.

weeks before being returned to the student.

has been plagiarised.

the postage to have it returned to them.
NVQ UNIT IN A SUBJECT
The AATT are one of the ONLY schools to offer single unit accreditation for the all
NVQ Level 2 and 3 subjects.
The process of completion will be the same as the NVQ/VTCT guidelines in terms
of passing and certification.
NVQ/VTCT Assessments
Whilst we appreciate that a student would like to complete in a specific
timeframe, the Academy has a course criteria which each student agrees to
upon enrolment. The course prospectus clearly states the process of how an
NVQ/VTCT course is structured.
An Assessment is carried out AFTER all lessons have been attended, and all
Assignments, Written work and Portfolios have been completed satisfactorily.
Upon completion, instructions will be given for Assessment and further for Exam
dates. An assessment CANNOT be given prior to completion of the full course
and its units.
If a student fails competency of an assessment, they will need to perform
another until deemed competent.

later change their mind, the criteria is invalidated.
