Other Important Information
A V Level is a newer, flexible version of a BTEC that you can start after your GCSEs, beginning in September 2027.
It is a hands-on qualification designed for students who want to study a specific career area but still want the freedom to mix and match their subjects.
It’s the size of one A Level: Because it takes up the same amount of timetable space as a normal A Level, you can take a V Level alongside two standard A Levels.
No long work placements: V Levels are mostly based in the classroom and college workshops.
Entry Requirements
A minimum of 5 GCSEs at Grade 4/C or above, including English. Maths (Higher Paper) at a Grade 5 plus any additonal entry requirements for your chosen A-level subjects or equivalent international qualifications. Please refer to our website for more information
