T Levels
Apply now for September 2023.
T Levels are new courses which follow GCSEs and are equivalent to 3 A Levels.
These two-year courses have been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses, so that the content meets the needs of industry, preparing students for work, further training or study. Designed by employers, T Levels offer students a mixture of classroom learning and ‘on-the-job’ experience during an industry placement of at least 315 hours (approximately 45 days). Get a head start in your career whilst learning and developing the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to work within industry or progress to higher level study.
Who are they aimed at?
T Levels are equivalent to three A Levels and can be studied after GCSEs. They are aimed at advanced students (at least five GCSEs at Grade 4 including English Language and maths) who are aged 16-18 and recognise their strong interest for a technical industry.
Why study T Levels?
• To develop practical skills, knowledge and behaviours that show you are occupationally competent • To apply theory in real workplace settings • To combine classroom learning (80%) with on-the-job employment experience (20%) • To pursue a high-quality technical route into skilled employment, further study or higher/degree apprenticeships
