Ministers Department for Education officials responsible for T Levels meet regularly with the Chief Executive of the Institute for Apprenticeships, where they discuss planning and delivery issues. Department officials are in regular and frequent dialogue with the Institute on this and all delivery matters.

The delivery of the programme to the timetable we have set out is ambitious, and so we have been keeping it under regular review. Alongside our apprenticeship reforms, T Levels are central to our technical and vocational education, which will help improve workforce skills and drive productivity growth.
