EXAM CENTRE Wimborne

Innovate Dorset Ltd is an approved centre to offer BTEC qualifications and Functional Skills Examinations from Pearson.

Pearson is the world’s leading learning company, with 20,000 employees in more than 70 countries working to help people of all ages to make measurable progress in their lives through learning. Pearson provides learning materials, technologies, world class qualifications, assessments and services to teachers and students in order to help people everywhere aim higher and fulfil their true potential.
In the UK, Pearson is the largest awarding organisation offering academic and vocational qualifications that are globally recognised and benchmarked, with educational excellence rooted in names like Edexcel and BTEC.

We provide a professional and supportive environment where candidates can sit exams based on their skill level rather than age. Functional Skills exams can also be sat at any time throughout the year.

Our experienced team of trained invigilators ensures a smooth and secure examination process.

We facilitate access arrangements such as readers, scribes, and extra time for candidates who qualify, ensuring everyone has the support they need.

We also welcome external candidates and can schedule exams at mutually convenient times.

For those requiring additional support, we offer single-room facilities to create a comfortable and focused testing environment.

At our exam centre, we are committed to providing a tailored, accessible, and efficient examination service to meet the diverse needs of all candidates.
