T Levels are post-GCSE qualifications combining classroom learning with industry placements. Shape the future of your business by supporting students to learn within your industry.
Join over 200 employers in the Leeds City Region who have already supported students with their T Level placements.
For more information, contact Emma Schofield.
T Levels give you another way to supplement your workforce. Launched in September 2020, they offer 16 to 19-year-olds an alternative to A levels and the chance to acquire real-life vocational experience through industry placements.
Students study one T Level, specialising in their subject and spending 80% of their time in the classroom – gaining the knowledge that will help them in their future career. The remaining 20% is spent on an industry placement, embedding that knowledge and developing real-world skills that will benefit them (and you).
As an employer, you’ll gain an enthusiastic employee you can train in specific areas to benefit your industry. Not only will you have an ‘extra pair of hands’, you’ll also be shaping the future of the younger generation.

Each placement is designed to last a minimum of 315 working hours to ensure students receive the experience and training they need. It’s up to you how you split this placement, depending on the needs of your business and what will best help the student to embed their knowledge.
The placement could be one day a week across 45 weeks, or you could take the student on for one placement of 45 days/9 weeks, or it could be a mix of both. Our team will be able to advise you on how to decide this.
During the placement, you will support the student to work on real-life projects within your workplace. You can consider:
Don’t forget to tell us how it went. We encourage all employers to provide student feedback after their placement has ended and we will initiate these conversations with both you and your student. You can even supply your placement student with a reference to enhance their employment prospects.
If a T Level doesn’t sound like the right fit for your business, why not take a look at our apprenticeship information? We can supply apprentices to cover all industry sectors.
