<p>The T level in On-Site Construction incorporates a number of occupational standards,
including level 2 Bricklayer. A T level student who chooses the bricklaying occupational
specialism will therefore develop many of the skills included in the level 2 Bricklayer
apprenticeship. Once the T level qualification has been approved, we will be able
to assess more accurately any differences between the competence conveyed by the level
2 Bricklayer apprenticeship and the T level in On-Site Construction.</p><p>Under current
apprenticeship rules, a T level student would be able to progress to a level 2 apprenticeship
if it allows them to acquire substantive new skills and the content of the training
is materially different from their T level. The apprenticeship would need to be a
minimum of 12 months in duration and involve at least 20% off-the-job training.</p><p>Our
analysis of the overlap between the approved T level qualification and the level 2
apprenticeship will therefore be important in determining progression options, including
eligibility for an apprenticeship at the same or a lower level.</p><p> </p>
