T Level successes as education group reveals college's results

Students who took their T Level exams at colleges in the RNN Group are celebrating after their results have been released.

The students at Rotherham College, Dearne Valley College and North Notts College have gained results including 13 Distinctions, 85 Merits and 75 Passes.

RNN Group started doing T Levels in September 2023 with Digital, Construction (Onsite Construction for Bricklaying and Joinery), Education and Childcare, and Health, and then expanded a year later with Animal Care and Management, Business (Management and Administration), Engineering (Building Services Engineering for Construction [Plumbing and Heating and Electrical Installation] and Maintenance Installation and Repair [Mechatronics and Processing and Control]), and the Foundation T Level too in September 2024.

Each T Level is equal to three A Levels and is a more practical journey into work.

Mark Ryan, vice principal - curriculum, of the RNN Group, said: “I am incredibly proud of our T Level learners across all of our campuses; their hard work, commitment and determination have resulted in some fantastic achievements and they should be rightly proud of what they have accomplished.

“Our staff have worked tirelessly to support and develop our learners, fully embracing the opportunities that T Levels provide; and their dedication to delivering quality teaching, industry-relevant learning and meaningful support has played a vital role in these successes.

“T Levels offer learners an exceptional opportunity to develop their technical knowledge and skills alongside meaningful industry placements, allowing them to apply their learning in real-world settings.

“This not only prepares our students for successful careers, but also gives employers early access to the talented individuals who could become the next generation of their workforce.

“It is a true win-win for our learners, employers, RNN Group and the wider local economy.”
