What are T-levels and what are the grades worth?

T-levels are a new qualification being introduced in England, designed to provide young people with a technical alternative to A-levels. They aim to give students the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in a specific industry or occupation.

There are different grades for T-levels, ranging from a Pass to a Distinction*. Each grade represents a different level of achievement and can have an impact on a student’s future prospects. For example, achieving a Distinction* in a T-level could be equivalent to gaining three A-levels at A* grade.

It is important for students to work hard and strive for the highest grades possible in their T-levels, as this can open up opportunities for further education or employment in their chosen field.
