T Levels are two-year, career-focused qualifications designed in partnership with healthcare professionals—giving you the knowledge, hands-on experience, and confidence to step into a job, university course, or higher apprenticeship in health and care.

What are T Levels?

One T Level is equivalent to three A-levels and gives you a mix of classroom learning and real work experience. You’ll spend 315 hours working in hospitals, dental clinics, laboratories or care homes, where you’ll get to see what your dream job is really like. You could be helping patients, supporting people to regain skills and independence or being part of a healthcare team. This makes up 20% of your overall course mark and helps you gain the practical experience employers are looking for.

Your college team will support you from start to finish, including helping you find a placement that matches your career ambitions and where you see yourself in the future.
