T Level Capital
Funding (TLCF)

No funding, no fee.
When it comes to our T Level Capital Funding service, we work on a no funding, no fee basis.
This means that we do not charge for the development, preparation or delivery of your T Level bids, and our professional fees are covered within the funding you receive. If your bid is unsuccessful, there is no cost to you. It’s that simple.
How does T Level Funding benefit you?
Acquire the funding required to deliver T Levels in your establishment, increasing your offering to students in developing key skills to meet evolving industry needs.

Sitting alongside apprenticeships, T Levels are new technical study programmes, introduced from the 2020/21 academic year. Eligible academies, colleges, university technical colleges and sixth forms can apply for T Level funding to enhance or introduce your facilities to deliver these programmes.

Our specialists work closely to prepare your estate for the introduction of T Levels, obtaining the funding you need and guiding all projects to a successful outcome.

Securing Funding to deliver T Levels

The T Level Capital Fund is split into two elements: specialist equipment allocation (SEA) and a competitive buildings and facilities grant. We help prepare your bid to satisfy the buildings and facilities grant requirements, establishing your eligibility to deliver T Levels for students going forward and ensuring these can be delivered effectively and appropriately.

  • Provision of precise feasibility studies to determine the suitability of converting your existing facilities or creating new areas to provide T Levels
  • We obtain all supporting information to back your bid to introduce T Levels into your curriculum, collating these in a well-constructed package for the ESFA’s approval
  • Following a successful bid, we organise a post-funding meeting with your team to re-evaluate all aspects of the project before works begin
  • We take responsibility for all contract administration and project management, instructing your chosen contractor and ensuring seamless delivery
