T Level in Health (NHS Nurse Cadets)

• Study mode: Full Time
• Duration: T Level in Health (NHS Nurse Cadets)
• Student type: School Leavers
• Course code: TLHEALTH1

Working in partnership with the NHS, our T Level Health course has been designed to give students a wide range of hands-on experience to set them up for a professional career within their chosen medical field. Course units include: understanding the healthcare sector; providing person-centred care; supporting health and wellbeing; anatomy, physiology and the diseases and disorders that affect the body systems; infection prevention and control; practical clinical skills workshops.

This programme is the equivalent of three A-Levels and mixes classroom learning and 'on-the-job' experience in an industrial placement for a minimum of 315 hours over the duration of the course. It's perfect for those who want to focus their studies in the health sector, and is an alternative to going to Sixth Form.

Entry requirements

To study this course you must have five GCSEs Grade 4 or above including maths and English. Due to the course being in high demand, applicants will be invited to attend a Skills Development Centre to assess your skills for the course. Candidates who are unsuccessful after this stage will be invited to apply for another course in the health sector. Your place on the course will also be subject to a satisfactory DBS check.

Costs

Free to those aged 16 to 18-years-old. Actual Cost is: £. All costs are subject to slight changes.

What next?

After completing a T Level you could go on to an apprenticeship, higher apprenticeship, Higher Education and/or degree apprenticeship, or have the skills to enter full-time employment in all branches of nursing from adult and mental health to learning disabilities and paediatric or midwifery.

Many of our former learners have progressed onto University and now studying health at degree level.
