I want to be a child and adolescent mental health nurse,what grades are needed (UK)?

I live in the UK. i would like to become a child and adolescent mental health nurse, working with teenagers that suffer from depression, self harm etc in a mental health unit. what sort of grades would i need and how would i go about it. if anyone has experience in this profession then what subject would need to be taken in college/6th form and so on.


thank you.|||To do a nursing diploma you only need 5 A* - C at GCSE level, then you can start nursing at uni once your 17 and a half. If you want to do a degree, you need A levels. It's better to do a degree and by the time you do it, it may be your only option. If you do A levels i think you need one science, then the other 2 are whatever interests you, but it would be really helpful to do psychology.
