Science

Develop your passion for science with a range of qualifications based in our top-quality laboratories and classrooms. Courses combine practical applications with their use in industry and business.

What’s it like in Science?

• We have great preparation for higher education as most students completing the Level 3 Diploma progress to university to study courses such as pharmacy, pharmacology, biology, biomedical sciences, forensic science, criminology and psychology.
• Courses are practically-orientated and most of your classes will be held in our five well-equipped laboratories with specialist equipment.
• Staff are highly qualified in their field. Their knowledge and experience will help you to prepare for university and a career in the sciences.
• We offer a supportive tutorial programme to equip you with knowledge that extends beyond the classroom and to help you to make the most of your time with us.
• Some units are assessed by coursework which is internally marked and externally moderated. Students taking the new Level 2 and 3 BTEC qualifications must also sit externally-examined units.
• It is also possible to study GCSE English and/or maths alongside your BTEC course.
