T Levels
The College began offering T Levels in September 2022 with the T Level Health. T Levels are a brand new qualification. They are high-quality technical courses, designed with employers, to give young people the skills that industries need, and for them to thrive in the workplace. They are two-year courses, equivalent to 3 A Levels, that can be studied following GCSEs. T Levels focus on vocational skills providing technical knowledge and practical skills specific to a learner’s chosen industry or occupation. 80% of the course is study time in college, gaining industry specific skills and knowledge. 20% is on industrial placement, putting into practice the knowledge and technical skills learnt in the classroom. On completion, students receive a nationally recognised qualification and will be prepared for their future progression routes, that include skilled employment, Higher Level Apprenticeships, or higher education. From September 2023, the College will offer a further three T Level qualifications in: ● Business and Administration ● Digital Production, Design and Development ● Design and Development for Engineering and Manufacturing
T LEVEL BUSINESS AND ADMINISTRATION
The Business and Administration T Level focuses on Business Management and Administration Support. In year 1, you will study core business knowledge and work on a project set by an employer. You will work collaboratively with other students, problem solve, and undertake research. You will also begin your industrial placement that will continue into year 2, where you will specialise in Business Support.
During this two-year course, students will develop a range of skills and core knowledge in engineering and manufacturing. This will include essential mathematics, materials and their properties, commercial principles and working within the engineering and manufacturing sector. You will be able to specialise in mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, control and instrumentation engineering or structural engineering.
This T Level will give you the industry knowledge and skills required to develop interactive and digital products. During the two years, you will undertake an industry placement, with the opportunity to work with experts in the design industry, practicing your design and development skills within a professional workplace. The final qualification will enable you to progress into a career in the digital sector, focusing on interactive and digital software design and development.
T LEVEL HEALTH
T Level Health is a two-year course, designed to give you a knowledge and understanding of concepts, theories and principles relevant to the Health and Science sector. Through the qualification, you will develop professional competencies, and gain core knowledge and skills that are required for entry into a range of healthcare and science occupations. In addition to the core content, students will specialise in a range of health team support roles, which may include adult nursing, midwifery, children's therapeutic care or mental health.
