SIXTH FORM

T Levels

The new qualifications introduced by the Government.

T Levels – are available to study at Burnley College Sixth Form Centre now in Construction, Digital, Education, Engineering and Health and Science.

 

T Levels are a brand new Level 3 technical qualification you can complete after GCSEs and are the equivalent to three A Levels. They can allow you to then progress to university, to a higher-level apprenticeship or to follow your vocation in the sector of your choice.

T Levels last two years (just like an A Level, Advanced Vocational course or certain Advanced Apprenticeships) and have been developed with employers and businesses so the content meets the needs of industry and prepares students for successful careers.

This exciting new qualification offers students a mixture of classroom learning and industry experience during a workplace placement of at least 315 hours (about 45 days) that will help students take their skills and knowledge to the next level and gain valuable sector-specific experience.
