Exeter College students completing their Construction T Level in Design, Surveying and Planning have achieved fantastic results, with 100% pass rate and top progression into employment or higher level study in the industry.   

Sixth form students at the College can study a wide range of T Levels that combine classroom theory, practical learning and a three month industry placement to ensure students have the skills to thrive in the world of work.  

This year’s Construction cohort have excelled both in their studies and placements and have also benefitted from a rich variety of experiences during their time at College. For example, a visit to the Glendinning quarry at Linhay Hill allowed students to find out about new technology which helps to increase the sustainability of quarrying. Students have also gained valuable insights into the industry through presentations and workshops by guest speakers, such as the Morgan Sindall Group. 

Students have gone on to secure excellent higher education and employment opportunities. For example, Joseph Bartlett (pictured above) is now studying for a Degree Apprenticeship in Quantity Surveying with Ward Williams Associates, where he completed his placement.  
 
Joseph said; “I’ve started my Degree Apprenticeship already, and I’ll be doing that for five years. My Exeter College experience has been great; I would recommend the T Level as you can use what you’re learning in class straightaway and put it into practice on your industry placement.”  
 

The success of the T Level Construction students mirrors a highly successful year all round for technical and vocational students at Exeter College. These students use technical or vocational subjects as their passport to university, to an Apprenticeship, to their next level of study or directly into employment.
