Programmes of Study For an academic programme of study students choose three A Level subjects studied over two years and must have met the specific entry criteria for each. A student who has not met the entry criteria for a full academic programme, may access a vocational programme which (typically) includes one A Level and a double-award BTEC qualification, again studied over two years, so long as the entry criteria for these courses is met.
