Hello,

Son got a conditional offer for a T Level, but despite getting a 6 in English Literature he only got a 3 in Language. The college are now saying he doesn't have the grade to do a T level and has to do Level 2 and resit his English Language. I'm very confused as he appears to not qualify to do a resit for English Language as he has met the conditions of funding by his high Literature pass?

Just to update you all...college rang today to say that he has to do the T Level and not the Level 2 and that they can't fund the English Language resit!

They acted as if I'd insisted he do the level 2!

No the college just say he needs English (language is not specified) and Maths and an average of 5 in his best 6 subjects. As far as we were aware he had met all of these conditions, but now they want him to do a year of level 2 and to resit his English Language, which seems pretty pointless.

Really difficult as he is there on his own and I'm working away this week so can't do a lot.

When they say ‘English’ they mean English Language. Often, 4 is the minimum requirement. It’s probably worth redoing it anyway as it will provide more possibilities to him in the future
