T Level - Design and Development for Engineering and Manufacturing Level 3 (25/26)

The College is excited to be delivering this new and innovative T Level in Engineering & Manufacturing, do you want to be one of the first students to benefit from making a meaningful contribution within an organisation whilst achieving the qualifications required to progress further into the world of Engineering? If so, this course is right for you. The T Level programme develops practical and technical skills in a subject that you are passionate about, subjects include Effects of aerodynamic forces on design, Manufacturing processes and calculations.

5 GCSES at grade 5 or above in English, Maths and Science or progression from the Engineering Transition Programme (Level 2) with a distinction and grade 4 in English, Maths and Science at GCSE.

All students will achieve two components of the Technical Qualification 'Core' and 'Occupational Specialism'. The 'Core' component will be graded A*-E with 2 x external exams: Paper 1, Maths and Science and Paper 2, Engineering Concepts. In addition to this all students will be complete an Employer Set Project which is also externally marked. The Occupational specialism will be graded Pass/Merit/Distinction and we as a college have chosen the following pathways: 1. Mechanical Engineering 2. Electrical & Electronic Engineering In addition to this all students will complete a minimum of 315 hours industry placement.

Depending upon the occupational specialism chosen the following are examples of progression routes in either higher education or Apprenticeships: Mechanical Engineering: Engineering Design & Draughtsperson, BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering, BEng (Hons) Aerospace Technology Electrical and Electronic: Engineering: Engineering Design and Draughtsperson, BEng (Hons) Electrical/Electronic Engineering
