T-Levels

T-Levels are two-year courses which follow GCSE's and are equivalent to three A-Levels. They are specifically developed to align with the demands of various industries to prepare students for work.

T-Levels aim to provide students with the skills and knowledge that businesses are actively seeking. They combine classroom-based learning with hands-on experience through substantial industry placements, giving students a practical understanding of their chosen field. For instance, a student pursuing a T-Level in Health, will spend time working within a hospital or healthcare setting, gaining practical experience in patient care, which not only enhances their learning but also makes them more prepared and competitive for roles in the healthcare sector.

The industry placement is a minimum of 45 days (315 hours). They will provide the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to open the door into skilled employment, further study or a higher apprenticeship.

T-Levels are available in numerous subject areas including:

• Agriculture, Environmental and Animal Care
• Business and Administration
• Catering and Hospitality
• Construction
• Creative and Design
• Digital
• Education and Early Years
• Engineering and Manufacturing
• Health and Science
• Legal, Finance and Accounting
• Sales, Marketing and Procurement

If you're pursuing a T-Level with your local college and are interested in gaining practical experience through an industry placement, we encourage you to discuss this opportunity with your course tutor.

At Frimley Health, we are committed to supporting T-Level students by offering industry placements during their second year, subject to availability. These placements are invaluable in providing hands-on experience in the healthcare sector. Arrangements for placements must be made through your college and the hospital, as we cannot accept direct applications from students.
