We are delighted to see the results for the first three T Levels in Construction, Digital and Education & Childcare. They offer the first insights into the impact of the Government’s flagship technical alternative to A Levels.
With an overall pass rate of 92.2% (compared to 98.4% for A Levels), we congratulate this first cohort - not just for taking the new qualification but for overcoming the challenging impacts of Covid-19.
However, in addition to the actual results achieved, we feel it is important to reflect on the view of the students completing these qualifications. The findings of the first Technical Education Learner Survey, commissioned by DfE and undertaken by NatCen and NFER, provide unique perspectives and rich data from over 700 students.
