Year 12 or equivalent are invited to join academics from a range of Health and Social Care based subjects to explore the courses and careers available for students interested in pursuing a future in health and social care.
Each student will be able to experience two taster sessions across a wide range of subjects in health and social care.
These sessions are aimed at broadening their understanding of the profession.
Workshops may involve using specialist simulation equipment, being in our virtual ward and getting ‘hands on’ with learning.
