Based on your GCSE results, we will work with you to determine the most appropriate level to start your studies with us. Achieving higher grades may enable you to progress more quickly towards employment or your next step, so we encourage you to achieve the best results possible. Our approach is personalised to each learner. Please note that if you do not achieve a GCSE grade 4 or above in English and Maths, you will be required to continue studying these subjects alongside your chosen course.
