It is also suitable for Level 3 learners whose subject choice does not include the necessary background but who are otherwise academically capable.
T levels: Pass in any subject.
We will accept other pre-entry qualifications or combinations of different qualifications. Applications may also be considered from candidates who do not meet these minimum entry requirements. We welcome individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and previous educational or professional experiences, including those with non-standard qualifications.
