The programme is taught through a multi-faceted approach which emulates the training which healthcare professionals receive. This includes physical demonstrations and practice in our ward, classroom, and laboratory-based learning.

You will be expected to complete weekly homework assignments throughout the programme, which will be representative of three A-level equivalents. This will include a mix of both pre-reading material and post-lesson knowledge checks.

The T-Level is assessed through a variety of mediums, designed to highlight both academic and practical skillsets.

Your core component is assessed through two written examinations at the end of Year 2. You will also complete a project known as the “Employer Set Project” (ESP) as a part of this component. The ESP is a controlled assessment that will be completed over a three-week period and focuses on key core principles you’ll learn.

Your occupational specialism will be assessed through a mix of written and practical assessments including discussion-based assessments. These will be reflective of real-world scenarios and requirements.
