Tomorrow, the first group of the new T-level students will receive their results.
T-levels are an alternative to A-levels, apprenticeships, and other 16-19 courses.
They focus on vocational skills and are equivalent to 3 A-levels. The T-levels can help pupils get into skilled employment, higher study or apprenticeships.
The first 3 T-levels were launched in September 2020, and a further seven were introduced in September 2021.
As part of her course, Shechinah completed a placement in the Department of Transport.
There, she learnt about Google Analytics, IT programming, service security and key business skills.
Since then, she has secured an offer to study Cyber Security and Ethical Hacking at Coventry University.
Shechinah said: “It’s opened so many doors and opportunities that I thought I’d never have and I am proud of myself, so it is good to be your own hero.”
Meanwhile, Kinnari Khodiara took a T-level course in Design, Surveying and Planning for Construction at Loughborough College in Leicestershire.
They offer pupils both practical and knowledge-based learning, with both school or college time and an on-the-job placements which last approximately 45 days.
Aaron Bayliss wants to be a teaching assistant in a special educational needs school.
He studied a T-level at Strode College in Somerset that was a good option for progressing his career.
As part of his T-level, Aaron completed a work placement that allowed him to learn a range of new skills.
Aaron said: “I really enjoy the work placement part of the course.
“I am learning many skills at the placement which makes it very rewarding.
“The support that I receive form the learning support assistants is amazing and they have fully supported me throughout my journey at Strode College.”
An additional six T-levels will be launched next month.
