It was smiling faces all round at Blackpool and Fylde College today as T Level students opened their exam results.
Staff joined students in the celebration as bright futures were revealed for the hard working students.
The overall T Level pass rate at B&FC for 2026 was 89 per cent, with 65 per cent achieving a Merit or above (equivalent to three A Level grades at B or more). Twenty-six students achieved a Distinction or better, including four who achieved Distinction* grades – a first for B&FC.
Alun Francis, Chief Executive of B&FC Group, said: “This year’s T Level and BTEC results are a credit to the hard work and dedication of our students, teaching colleagues and employer partners.
“T Levels offer young people the opportunity to combine academic study with meaningful workplace experience. This year we’ve seen T Level student numbers increase by more than 75 per cent across 14 pathways covering everything from business, health and education to digital technologies and engineering. “
At Blackpool and the Fylde College 205 students took T Levels courses and 291 students studied BTECs.
