This exciting Health course brings together classroom learning and real work experiences equipping you with the knowledge and skills to be successful in the Health and Care sector. The course provides you with comprehensive understanding of health and care related topics, covering areas such as human biology, ethics and clinical skills.

Through a blend of lectures, discussions, practical demonstrations and hand-on activities you will explore the complexities of health and wellness, and examine factors that influence both individual and community health outcomes. You will have the opportunity to join our health cadet programme where you will work alongside and learn from a variety of health professionals in a hospital environment.

Our bespoke and modern facilities reflect real work environments and allow you to practice your practical skills, alongside developing your ability to problem solve and think critically.

Students completing this course develop into competent and compassionate healthcare professionals and have the choice of progressing into employment, an apprenticeship or a higher education course.

At our Aylesbury Campus, we are running two pathways - an Adult Nursing pathway and a Supporting the Care of children and Young People's pathway (which learners specialise in their second year).
