T Levels, new technical courses equivalent to 3 A Levels help to deliver high quality technical education in England, to ensure that young people have the skills they need to move into the fulfilling careers they want. They will enable students to access on-the-job skills training, develop experience and links within their chosen industry and prepare them for future opportunities and apprenticeships.

The Social Science department offers a range of subjects including Sociology, Psychology, Health and Social Care and the new T level in Childcare and Education. We are exceptionally proud of our results:
- 72% A*-B at A2 Sociology
