Description

T Levels are at the heart of the drive to improve Technical Education. Every 16-19 year old student undertaking a T Level will be entitled to a high quality industry placement. While many employers understand apprenticeships and work experience, they are less certain about T Level Industry placements - what they entail, and how to work with students and providers to structure an appropriate placement. We need to ensure that employers are well informed and well-disposed to offer placements in the uncertain period as we emerge from the covid19 pandemic building on previous employer support package work in this area.
Requirements include:
- raising awareness of T levels and industry placement among employers, including targeting specific routes that are proving particularly problematic.
- providing the department with intelligence on employer behaviour and employment patterns
- updating existing guidance including with new materials where appropriate and identifying any new guidance that might be needed.
- delivering online webinars which can be recorded and accessed at any time;
- providing a dedicated response team
