Saracens Multi-Academy Trust Round-Up
SARACENS SIXTH FORM MEETS THE NEEDS OF ALL LEARNERS, TEACHING T-LEVELS AS WELL AS AN EXTENSIVE RANGE OF A-LEVELS.
Michael Muhammed teaches T-Level Business. T-Levels are the new gold standard in vocational education and are a popular pathway for many students at Saracens High School.
The Barnet school, unique in the area for championing these career-focused qualifications, has expanded its offering to include T-Level Business. Esther is one of almost 100 students studying a T Level at the sixth form in Colindale and is confident it is preparing her well for a future in healthcare:
‘T-Level Health is definitely the best fit for me. I love the lessons with Miss Ekwebelem [who is a midwife and part- time T-Level Health Tutor] in the T Level Centre and the Middlesex University ward at StoneX is unbelievable!’
Each T-Level includes an in-depth industry placement that lasts at least 45 days.
Esther and her peers have been gaining vital work experience at Grace House Care Home, Jewish Care, and Middlesex University. While T-Level Digital students have benefitted from placements at Quinn London, Methods, and 21k Media.
Mr Muhammad is the charismatic teacher of T-Level Business and can understand why T-Levels are so popular with parents as well as young people:
‘T-Levels equip students with the skills they need to join the workforce but also carry UCAS points for those who decide to pursue university study. The hands-on experience keeps the young people engaged in their classroom studies and is proving to be a perfect balance for so many students.’
Year 11 pupils across Barnet are invited to Saracens High School on 20th November to find out more about T-Levels.
