Coursework
“I achieved an A* in Health and Social Care. Studying this course at Stanmore College has given me valuable knowledge about supporting individuals, as well as the opportunity to develop strong communication and teamwork skills. As a result, I now feel more confident about my future studies and building a career in the health and social care sector. The teachers were consistently supportive, offering guidance and advice whenever I needed it. The course gave me a solid understanding of health and wellbeing, safeguarding, and communication, knowledge that will be especially useful as I begin my studies in Paramedic Science. It also helped me build practical skills in teamwork, problem-solving, and empathy, all of which are essential when working with patients and healthcare professionals.”
