Subject Areas

T Levels are a two-year high quality technical based qualification, designed by employers to meet the knowledge and skills valued in the sector. The programme focuses on vocational skills and are designed to equip learners into skilled work, apprenticeships or higher education.
The T Level programme is equivalent to 3 A Levels which can lead onto degree level study, employment or an apprenticeship and are viewed as an alternative form of study for 16-19 year olds. Learners will spend 80% in the classroom/workshop and 20% with an employer so that a full range of skills are developed.
Within the T Level, the learner will complete the following:
- The technical qualification which will include the core content (theory) and an occupational specialism (pathway) to provide the learner with the practical skills required for the world of work.
- An industry placement (minimum of 315 hours) with an employer related to your chosen occupational specialism.
- An Employer set project
