Combine two A Levels with one vocational course

Vocational qualifications, such as BTEC diplomas, allow learners to specialise in a particular subject and enrich it with hands-on learning and industry experience.

Our innovative Hybrid Programme combines two A Levels with one vocational course. These excellent vocational diplomas are designed to dovetail perfectly with A Levels.

They’re an ideal springboard to Higher Education courses, providing specialist content and supporting progression on to further study. Hybrid options are especially beneficial if you already have a career path in mind.
