There is a lack of high skilled workers in the UK, this is because not enough people are learning high level technical
skills alongside academic skills. The TechBacc (Technical Baccalaureate) is the solution. A new, professional and
different way to learn, ensuring you gain the right combination of skills to get you into employment.
Students will follow:
Tech-Level double award (equivalent to 2 A levels): ‘Design Engineering and Materials Technology’
Level 3 Core Maths
EPQ: Extended Project Qualification with an Industry focus
Extended work placement
How will it help my career plans?
You will be able to link your skills and knowledge
developed in each unit to industry and local
employers. There will also be work experience
placement opportunities. All this will make you stand
out when applying for apprenticeships and jobs. The
course prepares students for work across the
Engineering, Construction and Manufacturing sectors.
Why Develop Maths Skills ?
Good numeracy skills at a level above GCSE are
sought after by employers and will increase your
earning potential and career progression. You will be
able to access a much wider range of careers and
professions.
What are the entry requirements?
A minimum of 4 GCSE subjects at Grade 4 including
English (Lit or Lang) and Maths at Grade 4. It is
desirable that the applicant has a grade 4 or above or
equivalent in a GCSE Technology subject or Level 2
Merits in BTEC Construction or Engineering.
The TechBacc is ideal for ambitious, talented students who
want to pursue a technology-based career.
