Course Description:

'' This course is suitable for school leavers with good GCSE grades as well as mature learners returning to study. It provides an appropriate foundation for further study of accounting or related subjects in higher education..

Entry Requirements:
The minimum entry requirement is 5 GCSEs at grades A*-C in appropriate subjects. You must have GCSE Maths at grade C or higher, and GCSE English is preferable, due to the quantity of written work especially at A2. You will need to fill in an application form and attend an interview, which will give you the opportunity to ask detailed questions about the course. Students who have passed AS Levels elsewhere are welcome to continue their course at West Thames, though we would need to establish that your AS pass is compatible with the syllabus we offer at A2. If you have any questions about whether this programme is right for you, please ask Admissions for advice
