T Levels

T Levels are qualifications that combine classroom learning with an industry placement and are designed for 16-18 year olds.

They are two-year courses and an exciting alternative full Level 3 qualification. These high-quality courses will allow you to develop hands-on practical skills to progress onto university or straight into employment.

What are T Levels?

Equivalent to three A Levels and carry UCAS points
Combine classroom learning (80%) with on-the-job work experience (20%)
Complete a 45-day industry placement and have the opportunity to experience a real workplace setting
Courses have been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses to make sure you develop the practical skills needed for your future

The T Level study programme option will appeal strongly to students who:

Want to complete an industry placement as part of their qualification
Would like to apply theory in real workplace settings
Are looking to pursue a high-quality technical route into skilled employment, further study or higher/degree apprenticeships
