Informative and educational qualifications designed for young people, T-Levels offer a mixture of theoretical education and practical experience. They’re equivalent to three A Levels and take two years to complete. T-Levels were developed with input from business leaders and employers, ensuring that they impart crucial knowledge and skills relevant to the modern job market. The development of T-Levels has been a collaborative effort between employers, educational providers, and government bodies across the Hampshire region. Groups of employers, known as T-Level panels, played a crucial role in defining the skills and knowledge required for each course. This employer-led approach ensures that the curriculum is closely aligned with industry needs. The content produced by this panel is continuously tested and reviewed by students, educators, and external bodies to maintain relevance and effectiveness. T-Levels are ideal for students aged between 16 and 19 years old who have completed their GCSEs. If you’re seeking to balance academic study with practical, work-based learning, then T-Levels are perfect for you. They cater to those who aspire to enter skilled employment, pursue an apprenticeship, or continue their technical studies through further and higher education. With the diverse industries of the Hampshire region, there is an excellent local backdrop for students to undertake T-Levels in subjects like digital, science, construction, healthcare, and more. Schools and colleges will set their own entry requirements for T-Levels.
