T-Levels were launched in September 2020. They mix learning within the classroom with experience whilst on the job. T-levels are broadly equivalent to 3 A Levels and are 2 year courses. 

T-Levels offer students practical and knowledge-based learning at a school or college and on-the-job- experience through an industry placement of at least 315 hours – approximately 45 days.
