The UK National Information Centre's Statement of Comparability tool may be used to evidence the level of an individual's overseas qualification for employment, study, professional registration or another reason.

Ecctis - UK Centre for Professional Qualifications provides official advice and support for the recognition of international professional qualifications in the UK. Note that this service comes at a cost of £49.50 (~₴1,809) + VAT of 20% + delivery costs and is also able to evaluate partly-completed school qualifications.
