What are T Levels?

Starting this September, Government is introducing new T levels to provide young people with a technical alternative to A levels once they’ve finished their GCSEs.  

NCFE T Levels

NCFE is spearheading these exciting reforms and working with Government and leading employers to develop qualification across 3 industry routes.

• Education and childcare
• Health and science
• Digital

Who is NCFE?

NCFE is a leading provider of educational services. As a not for profit organisation we have a strong heritage in learning and have been at the forefront of technical and vocational education for over 170 years.

Are T Levels recognised by employers?

T Level qualifications have been created with employers who know what they’re looking for, which means they’re recognised by them and valued. They will increase your skills and employability, and include a longer, more meaningful work placement compared to other programmes.

T Levels are just as valid as A levels, they’re the high quality technical alternative to academic exams and might suit some students’ learning styles better.

Where to after T Levels?

T Levels can open up a wide range of progression opportunities for students to consider.

• A skilled occupation
• Higher or degree level apprenticeships
• Higher level technical study, including university.

When will they be delivered?

T Levels will be introduced over 3 years, starting from the 2020-21 academic year. All pathways from all routes will be available by 2023.
