Access to HE (Health & Social Care)

This course has been designed to be flexible enough to suit your needs, especially if you have personal, domestic or work responsibilities which need to be fitted around your studies.

Former students have successfully progressed to degrees and careers in Adult Nursing, Midwifery, Paramedic Science, Psychology, Sociology, Mental Health Nursing, Physiotherapy and a range of other Health Care routes.

NHS Learning Support Fund

The NHS Learning Support Fund provides additional funding for eligible healthcare students at University. It is
supplementary financial support to the mainstream student loans system, and is intended to help
support students attending healthcare courses to gain professional registration.

Student Success Story – Rob Fountain

Rob came to Grantham College to study the Access to HE course as he wanted to pursue a career is Physiotherapy. Rob has successfully gained a 1st class degree in Physiotherapy at Sheffield Hallam University and now working in the NHS.

“The Access course prepared me for University as it taught me all the things I need for my course. I have lots of written assignments so learning about referencing throughout the Access course was a lifesaver. The varied assessment types on the Access course were great because they’ve prepared me for the variety of assignments and exams I’ve been doing at Uni. “I can’t thank Grantham College enough – I have to pinch myself at times. I never actually thought that this would be but now I realise that it really is never too late.”
