Agriculture, Land Management and Production T Level results 2025/26 Provisional
How this cohort did — results funnel
Of the students who received a Agriculture, Land Management and Production T Level result in 2025/26, this is how many reached each grade level. Percentages are of the students with results (not of everyone who started the course).
Separately, 99.2% of these students completed the required industry placement (including special consideration). The industry placement is a completion status, not a grade, so it sits alongside — not inside — this grade funnel.

How Agriculture, Land Management and Production compares with all T Levels
The same measures for this pathway set against the figure for all T Levels combined in 2025/26. A green tag means this pathway is above the all–T Level figure; an amber tag means below. Differences are in percentage points (pp).
| Measure | Agriculture, Land Management and Production | All T Levels | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pass or above | 94.8% | 92.6% | +2.2pp |
| Merit or above | 59.8% | 68.9% | −9.1pp |

Comparisons use the same published year (2025/26). Pathways with small cohorts can sit well above or below the average, so read the difference alongside the cohort size (483 students here).
Participation by sex
DfE publishes results for female and male students. Small numbers in some pathways can make shares move sharply year to year.
