Ofqual Handbook: General Conditions of Recognition Section PR — Principles

Requirements

We will expect an awarding organisation to proactively understand and act in compliance with its Conditions of Recognition. As part of this, an awarding organisation should have in place effective processes and systems to allow it to comply with its Conditions of Recognition as required by Condition A5. An awarding organisation acting in a way that facilitates compliance with the principle is likely to demonstrate behaviours including, but not limited to: seeking to understand how its Conditions of Recognition apply to its actions and its qualifications being accountable for compliance with Ofqual’s regulatory framework endeavouring to do things right first time acknowledging when things go wrong ensuring that its policies and processes are fit for purpose, effective, and properly followed by the awarding organisation promptly remedying any breaches of its Conditions of Recognition which do occur learning from its mistakes being alive to emerging risks and putting relevant mitigations
