Details

This guidance will help providers and employers to deliver high-quality industry placements, which form a mandatory component of the T Level programme.

This guidance is for:

  • the principals, senior leadership teams, governing bodies, trustees, and staff of all institutions delivering T Levels
  • all institutions delivering T Level-style placements through the industry placement capacityCapacity and deliveryDelivery fund,Fund (CDF), and those considering offering T Levels
  • industry and employers interested in or involved in delivering T Level or T Level-style industry placements, and their representative bodies

We have also published a guide for students to help them prepare for their placement.
