BTEC Level 3 Diploma in Travel and Tourism

5 x GCSEs at grade 4 including English Language, or, a Level 2 in Travel & Tourism at Merit or above.

We will invite you to a Meet the Tutor event where you will receive information, advice, and guidance about the course you have applied for. This will be an opportunity for you to gain valuable information about the course and give you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have.

You will provide a copy of your last school report and/or a reference from an employer or relevant professional other to include attendance. This is to ensure we can support to be able to achieve well on the course. Applicants with 85% or below attendance will have been deemed not to have met this criteria. All applicants are given an opportunity to discuss any evidence based mitigating circumstances that may have affected the reference/school report.

We are firmly committed to finding the right course for you to ensure you can flourish. Talk to us today if you have any concerns about the application process, we are here to help take you to the next level.

You could join most of your fellow students in going to university to study Tourism Management or a related subject. Alternatively, you could apply for an Apprenticeship or seek employment in supervisory roles.

There are lots of opportunities available to you to progress across the South Thames Colleges Group and into the world beyond education.

During your time with us you will have access to a dedicated team of careers and education advisors who will help you as you take the next steps towards achieving your goals.

There will be compulsory field trips; you will need to pay approximately £400 to cover the cost of these visits. If you are over 18 in May of Year 13, you will undertake funded work experience abroad in a 5-star hotel.
