I don’t currently work but was looking at courses but there didn’t seem to be a price anywhere - are these type of courses actually free? I was looking at health and social care part time ?

Googling says level three is free if you are eligible.

Contact them direct? You may be eligible if not working but level2 may be aimed at those who do not have basic gcses so are in compulsory under 19 education.

Alternatively look at employers or apprenticeships who will support you studying for a level2//3 qualification.

Drop them an email if you're not keen on calling. They will be happy to help! I work for a college and we get lots of queries like this, as the funding info is often quite complicated. Hope you get sorted.

If you search on the internet for adult level 2 entitlement, you'll find the official ESFA guidance for colleges.

It depends on how old you are, what qualifications you already have and what you want to study.
