Studying and working in healthcare and childcare is an exciting and rewarding choice. There are a number of ways that you'll get to know the sector really well during your course. First of all there are our teachers who will share their vocational experiences with you while you learn. Your work placements are important too. These are your chance to discover what it's like to work in your chosen area, leaving you confident about launching your career.
You have plenty of courses to choose from – we're one of the largest training providers in south London. And as we're constantly upgrading our facilities we think you'll be impressed by our campuses too – most students are.
"I have really enjoyed the work experience; the tutors are amazing." Josephine Nana-Ayeepong, Level 2 Childcare
Hospitality Supervision & Leadership - Level 3 Diploma
Jerome says: "I chose to study at Merton College because it has excellent facilities for my Hospitality & Catering course. The College is very welcoming and my tutors are very supportive. As part of my course, I deliver a service to customers that visit the Taste Restaurant and I really enjoy interacting with them. We regularly host events and I like working as a team to co-ordinate these events. For example, we are often visited by members of the local community who come to the restaurant for lunch."
Once Jerome has completed his Diploma, he intends to study a Higher Level Apprenticeship in Hospitality and work for a major restaurant chain. His ultimate goal is to own a chain of restaurants one day.
