What's unique about this course?

This course is designed specifically to close the gap between where you are now and where a Sports Therapy career needs you to be. Here's what makes it different from a standard access or bridging course.

• A genuine second chance: our Prepare for Foundation pathway considers applicants without Level 3 qualifications who can show relevant interest or experience.
• One continuous journey: you don't reapply or change course after your Foundation Year, you progress straight onto the same accredited degree.
• Confidence-first teaching: the Foundation Year is built around academic skills, digital literacy and personal tutoring, not just subject content.
• The same industry-standard facilities: as you progress, you'll train using VALD health technology, the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill and an environmental chamber.
• Shared learning across disciplines: you'll study alongside students from related Health and Sport courses, widening your professional network from Year 1.
