T Levels are a qualification after GCSE that will take your future to the next level. T Levels are an alternative to A Levels, apprenticeships and other 16-19 courses.
Equivalent to 3 A Levels
A T Level focuses on vocational skills and can help students into skilled employment, higher study or apprenticeships.
With T Levels and A Levels equally recognised by universities, employers and other organisations, the choice of which route to take is up to you.
For example, achieving a Distinction* in your T Level is equivalent to achieving three A*s at A Level – both worth a total of 168 UCAS Tariff points.
80% Classroom, 20% Workplace
You will spend 80% of your time in a learning environment, gaining the skills employers look for. The other 20% of the time, you will be involved in a meaningful industry placement, where you can put your skills into practice.
The placement is a fantastic opportunity to put into practice the things you have learnt, to further develop your skills and knowledge, and to try out a potential career path.
45-day Industry Placement
Take part in an in-depth industry placement that gives you valuable experience in the workplace.
Every T Level will include an industry placement with an employer, focused on developing the practical and technical skills required for your future. These will last a minimum of 315 hours (approximately 45 days) but can last longer.
