4 WHY STUDY ANYWHERE ELSE
Why Study
Anywhere Else.
East Sussex College students celebrated receiving their
A-Level, T-Level and Technical and Professional results
in summer 2022, following two years of hard work and
dedication! It was a history-making year for the College, as
one of only 50 T-Levels providers nationally, to receive the
first T-Level results.
The first cohort of T-Levels at East Sussex College had a

superb 100% pass-rate - 8% above national average. An
impressive 81% of those T-Level students achieved a higher
Merit or Distinction grade.
39 A-Level courses received a 100% pass-rate - highlighting

the quality of provision on offer at the College and fantastic

Apprenticeship?
Apprenticeship delivery is either day
release, where you will come to one of
our campuses to study once a week,
block release, where you come to
college to study for a week at a time
or predominantly work based learning,
meaning you will be largely based at your
employer workplace with some college

the job and gain

be working at a relevant employer
organisation where you will be able to

environment, embedding the knowledge,
