T levels: The next level qualification

If you prefer a more vocational approach to learning, there is an exciting new option for post-GCSE education.

T Levels are a new generation of qualifications, offering a more practical alternative to A levels, and form an important part of the Telford College curriculum from 2023.

Each T Level is equivalent to three A levels, and features a mixture of classroom learning and ‘on-the-job’ experience.

They include at least 45 days of industry placement with a local employer, focused on developing the practical and technical skills required for each chosen career.

From September 2023, Telford College will be offering T Levels in Digital, Science and Health.

And from 2024, this will be followed by T Levels in a range of other course areas, including Business, Engineering, Construction, Art & Design, Media, Accounting, Hair, and Catering.

T Levels are based on similar standards to apprenticeships, and have been designed with leading businesses and employers to deliver the knowledge and skills that people need.

We are working closely with a number of local businesses to ensure that students will be able to gain the highest quality industry placements in their chosen fields.

By developing the courses in collaboration with employers and businesses, we can make sure that the content meets their skills needs – and prepares students for work, further training, or study.
