Introduction
Are you someone who really cares about people? Are you resilient enough to
help people through old age, illness and disability, offering them dignity and
respect? If the answer is yes, then a career in health and social care may be
for you!
This course provides a general introduction to health and social care. You
will study a combination of core and optional units and spend a significant
amount of time in industry via three industry placements over two years.
Our expectations of you are high because this is a challenging industry that
demands high standards.
You’ll be expected to organise your workload and develop both research and
study skills over the duration of the course.
During the course, you’ll study:
- Human lifespan
- Working in health and social care
- Meeting individual care and support needs
- Principles of safe practice

Entry Requirements
You’ll need five GCSEs at Level Four or above, including Maths at Level Four
and English Language at Level Five (minimum grade C or equivalent).
You’ll also need two good references (one must be from an employer or a
recent school/college report).
It is really important for you to have a criminal records check called an
enhanced DBS check before you can go on your work placement.
So, you need to be aware that if you’ve received a caution, reprimand or
conviction it may mean we can’t enrol you on the course and you won’t be able to
get a job in the care and childcare sectors.
