Welcome
Welcome to Achieve With SAT!
We know that not everyone learns in the same way and that sitting traditional exams isn’t always the best way to show what you’re truly capable of. Our mission is simple: to help you learn, grow, and succeed in a way that works for you.
That’s why we’ve partnered with NCFE to offer portfolio-based qualifications. This means you can achieve recognised qualifications at your own pace and in your own home, without the stress of exam halls or one-off tests.
What does “portfolio-based” mean?
Think of it as building a collection of your work - photographs, videos, worksheets, reading notes, homework, all gathered into one well-organised portfolio. Everything you learn during lessons becomes evidence of your achievements, meaning you’re working towards your qualification throughout the year rather than in a single exam.
Getting Started
How does it work?
It’s straightforward, we match you with a dedicated Assessor who will guide you through your qualification. They’ll work with you to complete lessons, help you understand your tasks, and review your work to make sure you’re on track to succeed.
Your Assessor won’t hand you the answers, but they’ll be with you every step of the way to give you the best possible chance of passing.
You might also hear about IQA (Internal Quality Assurance Officer). Their job is to check that your Assessor is supporting you properly and that your portfolio is being built to the highest standard.
Your Lessons
All your lessons are online and tailored to fit your portfolio. This makes learning flexible, accessible, and completely focused on helping you achieve your qualification.

How long will it take?
Your qualification is completely flexible. While many learners finish within an academic year, there’s no strict end date, you can take more time or less, depending on what works best for you.
When you’re ready to submit, we’ll support you through the final steps to ensure your portfolio is complete and ready for assessment.
