There are 2 Core Examination Papers for Building Services Engineering. Both papers are 110 mark assessments consisting of a mixture of short answer questions (SAQ), some of which are structured, and extended response questions. The questions assess across assessment objectives (AOs) 1, 2 and 3, allowing for the appropriate differentiation of learners to support in the reliable setting of boundaries.
The Core Examination Papers cover the following elements within the T level core:
Paper 1
• Health and safety in construction
• Construction design principles
• Construction and the built environment industry
• Construction sustainability principles
• Building technology principles
• Tools, equipment and materials
Paper 2
• Construction science principles
• Construction measurement principles
• Construction information and data principles
• Relationship management in construction
• Digital technology in construction
• Construction commercial/business principles
• Building Services Engineering (BSE) systems

Marking Examiners appointed will be invited to attend training and Standardisation for marking of these Core Examination Papers. Please note, unless you express specifically your preference for marking either Paper 1 or Paper 2 in your application, you will be allocated either assessment to mark based on your skills and experience.
