Course information
This course is aimed at any students with little or no background/formal qualifications in science but looking to progress to higher levels of study in the subject. A recommended entry requirement would be a GCSE grade 2 in GCSE Science, but we will accept applications from those without this.
Successful students can progress onto the BTEC Level 2 First Extended Certificate in Applied Science (GCSE equivalent) at the College, from which you may progress onto our level 3 suite of science courses (A Level equivalent).
Please note fees are quoted for one year only.
