Care, social care and health
If you have a passion to help and support others, a career in this sector will allow you to make a positive impact not just on individuals, but on communities too. We have a range of courses, including modern apprenticeships and degrees, that prepare you for the workplace.
In many of our courses, you will undertake work experience, in a variety of settings, where you can apply what you have learnt in the classroom. We also provide simulated environments in college to enhance practical experiences.
Our courses also look at children in a holistic way, considering their entire wellbeing through, for example, child development, observation, emotions and social support.
