GCSE Health and Social CareAvailable as a single or double award, the GCSE Health and Social Care qualification is structured to focus on real-world situations, providing learners with an exciting insight into the many aspects of this important sector of our society.
Ideal for students who want to enter the health and social care workplace, it equally provides an invaluable foundation for students wanting to progress to higher education. The vocational aspects of the qualification ensure that students can put their learning straight into context, making it engaging and relevant.
Undertaking the qualification in units, learners can appreciate how the skills and content between those separate units often actually overlap and will impact their own practice as a member of a care team.
The GCSE Health and Social Care is graded via a written examination and an element of controlled assessment (coursework in a supervised environment) for the internally assessed units.
GCSE Health and Social care is an exact match with AQA’s GCSE Health and Social Care Single and Double Award specifications, with emphasis on the skills needed for the Controlled Assessment assignments.
