Buxton & Leek College is offering 4 exciting pathways in T Levels.
T Levels are new nationally recognised qualifications that follow GCSEs and are equivalent to 3 A Levels.

T Levels mix classroom learning with ‘on-the-job’ experience during am industry placement of at least 315 hours.
T Levels are also:
- Worth UCAS points, with a T Level Distinction worth the same as 3 A Levels at A*.
