More detail about this qualification

Teaching and Learning:

For the first two weeks you'll spend four days a week (Monday to Thursday) in class. This will then reduce to one/two days (Monday/Tuesday) from week three.

The programme is delivered using blended learning i.e. face to face and online learning. This means some of your lessons will be delivered via Moodle (our online learning platform), which will require you to have a computer and internet access at home.

Work experience

You will spend approximately 2-3 days per week for ten weeks putting your skills into practice by completing supervised work experience (we will help you find a placement).

Some work experience agencies may require students to complete health screening before attending placement. These requirements will be discussed at interview.
