BTec vs Diploma?

Is the concern expressed by the Head of Edexcel recently justified. I hesitate to say this, but with Edexcel owning the btec qualification and with the btec qualification probably the one most likely to suffer from the success of Diplomas, I guess you could say it was all part of the job of protecting edexcel.

I think a concession has been made in that btec continue tor un for a while whilst Diplomas are watched - I think that if i was QCA then I would have had a stronger line on this.

Anyway - he did a good job of stirring the emotions about Diplomas.
