Welcoming everyone who wants to learn
A Levels
If you’re hoping to go to university and usually perform well in exams, A Levels could be the right choice for you. They offer the opportunity to study a range of subjects and gain the academic knowledge and skills that are highly regarded by universities and employers.
T Levels
T Levels are a 2-year qualification, broadly equivalent to three A Levels and accepted by universities. You will spend 80% of your time in the classroom and 20% on a 45-day work placement to give you the skills and knowledge employers look for.
