Alumni pupil of Kirkby High School Chloe chose to study our Early Years Educator (Education and Childcare) T Level as it offers the best combination of classroom learning and real-world experience ☺️ When asked about her time on her T Level course, Chloe said, "I've really enjoyed my industry placement at Ravenscroft Community School in the nursery class as I've been able to support children with SEND, assist them with their activities and I've also lead tasks such as story time and tuff tray activities. The placement has given me a real insight into working in an early years setting and is helping me understand what to expect in my future career, while building my confidence and experience working with children. My placement has helped me learn how to remain calm and professional in different situations, adapt to challenges and build positive relationships with children."

Sophie, a current Early Years Educator (Education and Childcare) T Level student and an alumni pupil of @burscoughpriory has developed her greater self-belief and determination throughout her course! 🤩 When asked about her T Level studies, Sophie said, "I've wanted to become a teacher since Year 4 and studying the T Level has given me the knowledge, skills and experience I need to work towards my goal. I've gained such valuable knowledge of key educational theorists, as well as practical skills such as first aid training, as well as health and safety training. My industry placement at Town Green Primary School has been a great experience - I've supported small phonics groups, carried out phonics assessments, lead maths groups and helped them with their writing. After my T Level course, I am aiming to study Primary Education with QTS (5-11) PGCE at @Edge Hill University."

It’s National T Levels Week! 🙌 Meet Meg and Elissa, two of our T Level Early Years students who are working towards their ambitions of becoming primary school teachers. Meg said: “A T Level gives you the opportunity to learn the theory behind what you’re doing but also gain real industry experience, which I think is really valuable.” For Elissa, combining learning with practical experience has helped confirm her future career goals. She said: “The placement confirmed for me that working with children is the career I want to pursue.” Both are great examples of how T Levels can help students build confidence, gain industry experience and take the next steps towards their chosen careers.
