T Level July Update
With results days now in sight, this is a key moment to get organised and feel prepared for what August will bring. In this update, you will find clear guidance, important reminders and practical support to help you navigate results days with confidence.
Results this Summer
Here’s what to expect for T Level results this summer, so you can plan ahead for results days.
We’ll send TQ component results for the core component (core exams and employer-set project) and the occupational specialism to your exams officer via Edexcel Online on 12 August 2026.
These will include a statement of results for each student and a broadsheet covering all your students across all TQ components. Results are embargoed until 13 August 2026, when you can share them with students.
The Department for Education (DfE) uses these component results, alongside industry placement completion, to issue overall T Level results through the Manage T Level Results service. They'll issue certificates and statements of achievement and report grades to UCAS.

A Partial Achievement is where a student completes their industrial placement and passes either the Core or Occupational Specialism components but not both.
Does the Student get a Grade or Certificate?
No, the student doesn’t get a certificate but gets a Partial Pass on their statement of results
So what do they get?
They get UCAS points based upon the grade they achieve in the component they passed
The tables here show the UCAS points that go with the result for a grade in either Core or Occupational Specialism the final column, where possible, is an approximate A level equivalent
