There are many places one might go to study to receive a BTEC National Diploma. The most reputable source for getting information for this diploma would be the official BTEC website.

I think you would need at least BTEC National Diploma 2, and if your more advanced maybe BTEC National Diploma 1 too :)
i am on a BTEC National Diploma Course in fish husbandary at brooksby college, and i was woundering if i could be eligable for a student loan? The way I believe it works is whether the diploma is classed as further education or higher education. I did a BTEC National Diploma in Foundation Studies (art and design) and this was further education. Only higher education students qualify for a loan.
After GCSE, it is: A Level/Level 3 BTEC/NVQ/Level 3 Diploma Certificates of Higher Education/NVQ4/Vocationally-Related Qualifications Diplomas of Higher Education/Higher National Diploma/Higher National Certificate/Foundation Degree Honours Degree/L6 Professional Diploma Masters Degree/L7 Professional Diploma Doctorate (PhD)/Specialist Awards
5 GCSEs at grade C or above I think one must be Biology & BTEC National Diploma or Certificate in Animal Care
I think it really will depend upon your other qualifications. I am fairly sure the BTEC diploma is equivalent of A level. However, only relevant BTEC National Diplomas are accepted, and some universities may not accept childcare because it is not related. To check, contact the universities you are hoping to apply to. To study midwifery, you will need a minimum of 5 GCSE's at grade C or above in Maths, English and a Science. You will also need 2 A level equivalents.
If you do a BTEC National Diploma in Art then no - the second year is your foundation year
