Diplomas are hands-on, vocational qualifications that focus on a specific subject or industry skill set. They are ideal if you prefer practical coursework over exams and want a direct route into employment or further study.
An Apprenticeship allows you to work for a real employer, earning a wage while you learn and gain a recognised qualification. It combines on-the-job training with classroom study, giving you practical experience alongside your education.
T Levels are two-year technical qualifications designed with employers to give you skills for the workplace. They mix classroom learning with a substantial industry placement, offering a high-level alternative to A Levels for practical careers.
Run in partnership with the Royal Air Force, this employer-led programme is designed to fast-track you into a secure career within the aerospace, engineering or uniformed services sectors. You will combine academic study with real-world industry projects and specialised technical training, ensuring you are fully equipped for your future role in defence.
Yes, they are. A single T Level is the academic equivalent of three A Levels and carries the same number of UCAS points. While A Levels are subject-based and assessed mostly through exams, T Levels are career-focused and combine classroom learning with a substantial industry placement.
The current minimum wage for apprentices is £7.55 per hour if you are under 19 or in the first year of your training. If you are 19 or over and have completed your first year, you are entitled to the higher National Minimum Wage for your age group, which can be up to £12.21 per hour.
The hands-on experience you get with an apprenticeship is great, especially being able to learn on the job while earning at the same time. I’m now working in the industry I’m passionate about.
“It’s a very hands-on course with a strong creative focus. It’s coursework-based, so time management is important, but it’s well balanced and gives you the freedom to experiment whilst creating a strong portfolio I can use when applying to uni to study Theatre and Film Set Design.”
