What is the T Level Capital Fund?
The T Level Capital Fund (TLCF) presents an excellent opportunity for schools and colleges to enhance their facilities and deliver exceptional technical education. T Levels are two-year-long, level 3 technical study programmes for 16–19-year-olds designed in partnership with businesses and employers.
TLCF has been created to support education providers in delivering T Levels as part of their curriculum. The fund is designed to give students access to good-quality facilities and industry-standard equipment to help them gain the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in a full-time position.
At Eddisons, we specialise in supporting educational institutions with successful T Level Capital Fund applications and project management. Call 0808 175 9290 or claim your free consultation to get started.
“The T Level Capital Fund offers schools and colleges a vital opportunity to upgrade facilities, invest in industry-standard equipment, and create high-quality learning environments. This funding helps ensure students gain the practical skills and experience needed for successful careers.”
Ian Harrington, Regional Managing Partner (North)
What Can the T Level Capital Fund Be Used For?
The fund consists of two elements: Specialist Equipment Allocation (SEA) and Buildings and Facilities Improvement Grant (BFIG).
- SEA is a one-off payment made to all providers who begin T Level delivery for the first time. It is calculated based on the routes you are offering and how many pupils will participate. You can use the money for technical items that will aid learning and development, such as machinery, vehicles and tools.
- BFIG is a bid-based scheme that allows providers to refurbish facilities or build new spaces to deliver T Level programs more effectively.
Eddisons specifically assist applications for the BFIG element. If you need help, please get in touch to discuss the grant with an expert.
T Level Capital Fund Eligibility Criteria
