The OCR Cambridge Technical Extended Certificate in Health and Social Care is different from A Level courses because the emphasis is just as much about developing your skills as it is about gaining knowledge. Equivalent to a full A Level, and consisting of six units over two years, the course is graded Distinction, Merit or Pass. The qualification will provide students with a broad overview of the Health and Social Care sector as they develop a deeper insight into the factors that affect individuals throughout their lives, the roles and responsibilities of those working in this field, and how high-quality care is provided.
Minimum entry requirement is grade 6 in three GCSE subjects. All students must have achieved a minimum grade 4 in both GCSE English Language and GCSE Mathematics.
