Health and Social Care is a course particularly aimed at students who think they would like to work in the health services; with small children, or in caring services (for example social work, youth and community work, probation, housing, counselling or advice work). The course provides you with a thorough foundation in the knowledge, skills and understanding required for these roles. You will need a good standard of literacy and numeracy supported by a general education equivalent to 4 GCSEs at Grade 9-4. WHERE WILL THIS TAKE ME? You could go on to university and then into careers such as social work, residential care management, nursing or the probation service. This course is nationally recognised by employers, meaning you can go directly into employment.
Four subjects at Grade 4 or above.
The BTEC Level 3 in Health and Social Care is assessed via a combination of external exams, mandatory units, optional units and portfolio. Students on the course need a mature attitude to cope with independent research and portfolio collation.
