T Levels

T Levels are a qualification designed to give you a head start towards the future you want.

T Levels are high-quality technical alternatives to A Levels that combine classroom theory, practical learning and a work placement. They’ve been co-created by the industry you want to be a part of, so you can gain the knowledge and skills you need to leap ahead of the crowd and into your desired career.

The two-year courses are designed to prepare students for work by including a mixture of classroom learning and on-the-job experience as part of an Industry Placement. T Levels follow GCSEs and are equivalent to three A Levels. They provide the knowledge and experience needed to open the door to highly skilled employment, a higher apprenticeship or entry to university.
