First-Ever T-level Students Celebrate Success at Bradford College

S For Story/10669125
Bradford College marked this year's Level 3 results day (Thursday, 14 August) with an exciting milestone - the completion of its first-ever group of T-level students.

BRADFORD, U.K. - s4story -- The talented bunch has shown what dedication and hard work can achieve, with a 100% T-level pass rate (compared to a national pass rate of 91.4%), and 80% of students achieving a distinction grade on the Education & Early Years T-level programme.

T-levels are a two-year qualification for 16-19-year-olds designed with employers. Each T-level is equivalent to 3 A-levels and includes a 45-day work placement  -  giving young people the edge when they move into the workplace or on to university.

Thousands of students across the country received results for A-levels, AS-levels, T-levels, and some Level 3 Vocational Technical Qualifications (VTQs) such as BTecs. To mark the occasion, Bradford College hosted a special breakfast event to showcase its students' achievements.

T-level finishers were joined by friends, family, and lecturers in the College's Grove training restaurant, as well as by employers such as Magnus Construction and Balfour Beatty. These partners have worked with Bradford College to design training and offer hands-on work placements.

Sarah Applewhite, Bradford College Vice Principal - Quality, Teaching and Learning, said:

"We're delighted with the results of our first-ever cohort of T-level completers. We wish them the best of luck with whatever they choose to do next – whether it's continuing a higher-level qualification with us, joining their chosen profession, or progressing on to university.

"I'd also like to congratulate all our other Level 3 students and our fantastic lecturers. Bradford College is thrilled to have a 91% Level 3 pass rate overall for 16–18-year-olds completing their studies this academic year. This includes diplomas, extended diplomas, NVQs, and BTecs, making Bradford College one of the largest Level 3 providers in the region."
