T Levels are oour new high level courses which follow GCSEs and will be equivalent to three A Levels.

The two-year courses cover core concepts and theories as well as an occupational specialism/Practical Skills needed to provide learners with the skills and knowledge employeers are looking for. As part of the course, each learner will experience an in-depth industry placement lasting 45 days. Learners will gain a vital understanding of the workplace and their chosen field of study; employers will gain early access to a talent pipeline for positions within their organisation.

There are four routes available:
