Medical Science

Five grade 4 GCSE passes which must include at least grade 4 in Maths and English Language and Science

Medical science is relevant to all our lives. Knowing how our bodies work when healthy is as important as understanding what can go wrong and what the medical profession can do about it. In this fascinating course, you will learn about the major human body systems, related diseases, diagnostic testing and potential treatments. The qualification is an A Level equivalent but differs from A Level Biology because it is vocational, focuses on human biology and has a significant coursework component. The Medical Science Diploma is a great foundation for students interested in careers in Nursing, Midwifery, Physiotherapy, Health and Social Care or Clinical laboratory work.
