Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The Subject Committee for Archaeology (SCFA -- the grouping of heads of archaeology departments in UK higher education) is concerned that applications to study archaeology are dropping. The subject is no longer offered at GCSE level, and A level archaeology is also potentially under threat. This article discusses a report recently published by the Council for British Archaeology, the outcome of research commissioned by the SCFA to look into factors that determine uptake of the A level qualification and onward progression to an undergraduate degree. Some of the findings of the report, entitled Archaeology Education Pathways '“ A Level & Beyond: A Survey of Key Stakeholders to Review Sustainability of the Current Progression Pathways in Academic Archaeology, are that there is a need for enhanced collaboration between A level centres and university departments; that the current A level syllabus needs to be reformed; and that there needs to be clearer and more up-to-date advice about the value of a degree in archaeology and a clearer approach to career progression within the profession.
