T Levels
The future is now.
T Levels are a two-year qualification beginning in Year 12, combining classroom learning with real workplace experience to prepare you for the world of work.
You will spend one day each week on a structured work placement, giving you hands-on experience in a professional setting where you can apply your knowledge in a real business environment. The placement runs across both Year 1 and Year 2 and lasts a minimum of 45 days.
The qualification is equivalent to three A Levels and can lead to employment, university, or a higher-level apprenticeship.
