T Level Health requires you to achieve the minimum entry requirements for your chosen pathway. The minimum entry requirements will be discussed at open events and at your college interview.
The Pearson T Level in Health (Supporting the Adult Nursing Team) is a nationally recognised qualification equivalent to three A Levels. It is ideal for students who are passionate about pursuing a career in healthcare, particularly within adult nursing and related health professions.
This exciting two-year programme combines classroom learning with substantial industry placement experience, enabling you to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours required by the healthcare sector. You'll gain a strong understanding of health and science alongside specialist nursing support skills, preparing you for progression to university, higher apprenticeships or employment within healthcare.
The T Level in Health is delivered by our experienced Health & Social Care team, supported by specialist science staff. Students benefit from modern teaching facilities, including dedicated health classrooms and a specialist clinical skills room designed to replicate professional healthcare environments.
You will have access to a wide range of learning resources throughout the programme, including textbooks, digital materials and industry-relevant equipment. Alongside taught lessons, you will be expected to engage in directed independent study, research and preparation for assessments.
