Recording T Level Small Team Projects in the ILR

Created

I've just been told that some of our T Level students are doing some "Small Team Projects" which contributes towards their 315 Placement Hours. The guidance is here, but what I can't find out is whether we record that in a Placement record in the ILR. Does anybody have any experience with this?

Ooh, exciting! As they're a "replacement" for a proportion of "real" placements, reckon I'd give them their own line? Then the main placement (with its ~200 hours) and this (with its ~100 hours) would add up to the 315?

That does seem like a sensible solution, but there really should be guidance on this. Would you record the mode as internal or external? They do have to be "employer led", but they're not actually at the employer in this case.

It actually seems like a really good alternative to part of the placement, but I'd never even heard of it until today.
