T Levels Celebration Week: Shaping Careers, Building Futures
2nd – 6th December 2024
As one of the first providers to deliver T Levels, we’re so proud to be marking this moment and celebrating the success of our students. We started offering T Levels in Engineering this academic year. In September 2025 we hope to expand our T Level offer to include Digital as well.
T Levels are two-year courses that young people can take following GCSEs. Broadly equivalent in size to 3 A levels and accruing UCAS points. T Levels were developed in collaboration with employers to ensure that students will be equipped with the skills they need. They offer a mixture of classroom learning and ‘on the job’ experience with at least 45 days spent on an industry placement with an employer. With a T Level, students can progress straight on to skilled work, higher study or apprenticeships.
We’re really proud of our T Level students. They are moving on to such a wide range of next steps, with some planning on going straight into the workplace and others wanting to start a higher-level apprenticeship or go to university. We’re looking forward to seeing how they succeed in the future.
Minister for Skills, Jacqui Smith said: “This government is backing T Levels as a top-quality qualification, helping young people develop skills to seize opportunity.” “T Levels offer hands-on experience in the workplace and excellent career prospects for young people seeking skilled work or further study. This September saw us launch three new subjects, with another set to launch next year.” “I’m delighted to see more employers getting behind T Levels by offering industry placements, including Amazon, Lloyds Banking Group, and Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust, helping to nurture future talent and support the development of in-demand skills.”
