Childcare and Education T level content published

The detail of the education and childcare T-level has now been published.

The content and specifications of the new technical qualification is now available after being approved last week by The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education.

The technical qualification is a key part of the T level and contains core content (non-specialist content covering children from 0-19) and specialist early years content. The industry placement, a minimum of 750 hours, and English and maths at level 2 make up the rest of the T level programme.

T-Levels, which are a vocational alternative to A-levels, will be piloted from this September, and in time are expected to replace the college-based Early Years Educator qualification at Level 3.
