This qualification is relevant to all students contemplating working in every area of Health Care or Social Care. Students are supported to find a work experience in a health or social care setting to meet their personal career aspirations.

Many students choose more placements or attend placements over an extended period e.g. Wednesday afternoon.
- L2 pass in H&SC or 5 GCSE grades at 4+ - All students need a minimum of five GCSE passes (any subject) at grade 4 or better to study in Sixth Form.
