T-level Programmes of Study

T-levels are a post-16 alternative to A-levels and Apprenticeships. They are a special type of Programme of Study.

How to set up T-levels

T-levels are set up in a very similar way to Programmes of Study so you can follow this guidance: Programmes of Study and Core Learning Aims for Post-16

Every T Level student must choose an occupational specialism as part of their T Level programme. To record this in Arbor, you'll need to:

• set up a separate programme for each specialism
• add the ZTLOS QAN code as the placeholder, alongside the Subject Classification Code (SCC or Discount Code) as it isn't possible to link Non-EDI qualifications to a programme instance. To find the SCC use the Department for Education's Generic QAN Data or for more information see 16 to 18 qualifications, discount codes and point scores

Adding students
