We started delivering T Levels in September 2023 and they are proving very popular with our learners.

T Levels offer a mixture of classroom learning and an industry placement of 315 hours (45 days), where you will be fully integrated into the workplace.

Applicants for Level 3 courses will be accepted onto either a Level 3 course or a T Level, dependent on grades. Please follow the links below to apply.

T Levels are two year technical programmes, designed with employers, to give young people the practical skills and knowledge that industries need.

The ‘T’ stands for technical and they are an alternative to A Levels. One T Level is the equivalent of 3 A Levels and they are assessed using a mixture of practical tasks, projects and exams. Learners achieving a T Level will get a nationally recognised certificate which employers will use as evidence in their recruitment.

We offer T Levels in:

  • Construction
  • Digital
  • Education and Childcare
  • Engineering and Manufacturing
  • Health and Science
