Studying a T Level in Health (Supporting the Adult Nursing Team) will prepare you for an exciting career within the health sector.

Designed by employers, a T Level combines practical and theoretical learning experiences, with real-life industry experience. It also supports progression on to university, into employment or on to a higher/degree apprenticeship.

You’ll spend 80% of your time at College and 20% on a 45-day industry placement to experience having a real career while you continue your studies. It’ll also give you a head start in the jobs market and will look great on your CV or personal statement.

More information

The course will start in September and will take two years to complete.

This course will take place at our Town Centre Campus, Water Street, St Helens, WA10 1PP.

During your T Level, you will cover the following modules across the two years, including a 45-day industry placement:

The course is assessed by an externally set written exam, an employer set task and an externally assessed synoptic assessment that covers the occupational specialism.

You should have five GCSEs at grade 4 or above, including English language, maths and science.
