Statistics

A Level

Can you use statistics to prove anything? Or actually can statistics really prove nothing? If a covid test is about 95% accurate, why do more than half the people who test positive not actually have the virus? If you want to find out more about how data and statistics are used – and more often mis-used in the media, then this could be the course for you.

Science

ScienceTransition Course Overview The Transition Programme is a new type of study programme, specifically designed to develop the skills, experience, knowledge and behaviours to support progression onto a Level 3 programme of study. This programme is targeted at students who are not ready to start Level 3 but have the potential to progress onto a […]

Science Combined

GCSE

Combined Science is taken by students as part of the transition Health & Science T-level programme.

Physics

A Level

A level Physics combines practical skills with theoretical ideas to develop descriptions of the physical universe. You will learn about everything from cosmology to particle physics. If you are interested in the limits of space, the beginning of time and everything in between this is the subject for you. Physics is more than a subject – it trains your brain to think beyond boundaries. Physics is a highly respected A level. A good grade in A level Physics demonstrates to an employer that you have analytical and mathematical skills that you can apply to real life situations. There are many possible career paths that it will create for you, for example: Engineering, Medicine, Forensic Science, Astronomy, Cosmology, Electronics, Power generation, Finance and many more.

Mathematics

GCSE

Students who have not yet taken their GCSE and those who did not gain at least a grade 5 at high school are best suited to this one year course. In addition students who already have a grade 5 but need a higher grade can take this course on the Higher Tier in order to achieve a higher grade.

Mathematics

A Level

Maths is all about solving puzzles and spotting patterns. It is the key to unlock a wealth of other sciences such as Chemistry and Physics. And there would be no computers at all in the world without maths. Taking your knowledge from GCSE Higher maths and expanding it into more complex and fascinating fields you will also study mechanics – how can predict the movement of objects acting under various forces – and statistics – how can we use data that we have observed to predict what may happen in the future?

Science

T Level

Are you looking for a science course that focuses more on vocational skills than A levels, that will help you into skilled employment as a laboratory technician, higher study or apprenticeships? A science course which includes an in-depth industry placement in the science sector? Yes? Then the T level in Laboratory Sciences is the course for you.

Further Mathematics

A Level

What happens if you try to take the square root of minus 1? It turns out quite a lot can happen with a bit of imagination. Enter the world of further maths and explore some of the most fascinating topics discovered by centuries of inquisitive mathematicians. What has been described by many as the most beautiful formula ever conceived of? If one maths A Level is not enough for you, then this is the place to come.

Digital

DigitalTransition Course Overview The T Level Transition Programme (Digital) is a new type of 16 to 19 study programme designed to develop the skills, experience, knowledge and behaviours to support successful progression onto a T Level in either Digital: Software Development, Infrastructure or Support Services. It is targeted at students who are not yet ready […]

Digital Production, Design and Development

T level

This is a two year course which has been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses to ensure that the content meets the needs of the digital industry and prepares students for work. It is a level 3 qualification equivalent to 3 A Levels. More than 200 businesses, including Fujitsu have helped design the course content to make sure young people taking T Levels are equipped with the knowledge and skills that employer’s value.

Cyber Security

T Level

If you love creating, problem solving and working with digital hardware then this is the course for you! This course will provide learners with the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to progress into skilled employment, higher-level technical training or higher education study in the digital sector.

Computer Science

A Level

Interested in what makes computers tick? Want an introduction to computing? If you like solving problems and you can think logically then Computer Science is the subject for you. You are given the opportunity to study current computer applications; high level language programming and systems analysis and design. Computing combines well with all Sciences, Mathematics, Product Design, Interactive Media and many other subjects.

Chemistry

A Level

Sometimes referred to as the ‘central science’, Chemistry helps to connect physical sciences, like Maths and Physics, with applied sciences, such as Biology, Medicine and Engineering. In fact, Chemistry is all around us and an understanding of the subject can help to answer many simple questions about everyday life. Chemistry is one of the Russell Group universities’ ‘facilitating’ subjects — so called because choosing them at A-level allows a wide range of options for degree study. An A-level in Chemistry is required for most medicine, dentistry, and vet courses.

Biology

A Level

Biology is a fascinating subject, the study of which will see you learn about the natural world and all the living things within it. Gaining an A-level in this subject opens up a vast range of opportunities for both university degrees and career options. Biology covers a broad range of topics and has aspects to interest a wide range of students. Biology is a pre-requisite subject for many degrees in Biological Science and Medical related fields of study. Biology is one of the Russell Group universities’ ‘facilitating’ subjects — so called because choosing them at A-level allows a wide range of options for degree study.

Applied Science

BTEC

Are you looking for a science course that focuses more on vocational skills than A levels, that will help you into skilled employment as a laboratory technician, higher study or apprenticeships? A science course which includes an in-depth industry placement in the science sector? Yes? Then the T level in Laboratory Sciences is the course for you.

Applied Human Biology

BTEC

Do you want a career where you can make a difference to the health of others? On this course you will study how the human body functions at a genetic, cellular and tissue level. You will gain understanding of how human biology and lifestyle factors interact to affect the health of individuals and populations. You will also explore the many ways that this knowledge can be applied in order to improve diagnostic and health outcomes.
