In order to study a T Level at Calderdale College we require 5 GCSE passes (grade 4 or above), including English, maths and science, or a pass in a relevant Level 2 Qualification. You can find out more about our T Level transition year in the section above.
T Levels are a two-year qualification and during that time students will spend most of their time working in the classroom but will also partake in a 45-day placement in a local business.
A T Level Distinction* qualification is worth the same amount of UCAS points as 3 A Levels at A* or a BTEC Level 3 qualification at D*D*D* – meaning you get to study one course for the price of three!
