Don't think so, it has to be registered in both years to be honest. Its even gone to the stage that the qualifying subjects must be done in school and not outside school.

LCVP isn't as easy to pick up good points in as you might think. The correction process seems to be very tempermental and a lot of people who put in a lot of effort come out with only a Pass or Merit at most.

its a non runner as you MUST do LCVP over 2 years. It can be repeated but the students can only resit the exam and not the portfolio
