T Levels

T Levels are a 2‑year qualification after GCSEs that will take your future to the next level!

  • T Levels are equivalent to 3 A Levels 
  • They include a 45-day industry placement 
  • Consist of 80% classroom and 20% work 

A T Level is a nationally-recognised qualification that gives you a new choice to consider after GCSEs and are an alternative to A levels, apprenticeships and other 16 to 19 courses.

If you undertake a T Level you will spend 80% of the course at College, gaining the skills employers need. The other 20% of the course will be spent undertaking a 45-day industry placement where you will put your skills into action and gain valuable experience.

A T Level Distinction* is worth the same as 3 A levels at A* so you can choose to continue studying, enter into employment or undertake an apprenticeship. 

    Stu­dents enrolling onto these cours­es will ben­e­fit from excel­lent indus­try links and state-of-the-art facil­i­ties at our cam­pus­es across Not­ting­ham. For exam­ple, our brand-new £600k sim­u­lat­ed hos­pi­tal ward opened in 2023 and gives T Lev­el stu­dents on our health cours­es the expe­ri­ence they need before they enter into industry.
