FAQ 322
Do you accept dental nurse qualifications for entry onto the Diploma in Dental Hygiene and Dental Therapy?

We can accept one of the following options for entry onto our course:

1. Level 3/4 Dental Nurse Qualification plus 1 A Level in a relevant Science subject (preferably Biology) at grade C.

Post-qualification certificates in Dental Nursing can strengthen an application but cannot be used to meet the minimum requirements.

2. Level 5/6 Dental Nurse Qualification.

With any of these options you would also be expected to have 5 GCSEs at grade C / grade 4 and this must include Mathematics, English Language and a Science subject.
