Not yet ready for a foundation degree?
If you have a few years' experience working with children and young people you will probably already be eligible to start a foundation degree - even if you haven't got the typical formal academic qualifications expected for a degree-level course.
If you haven't got the experience or qualifications to get started on a degree, we've got Access to HE courses to get you ready for a degree starting September 2021.
Again - there's nothing to pay upfront, with your course costs covered by an Advanced Learner Loan. If you go on to successfully complete a degree, you don't need to pay back the Advanced Learner Loan.
