Study nursing in the UK with a care assistance work visa

No, you cannot study nursing in the UK with a care assistance work visa. The care assistance work visa (such as the Health and Care Worker visa) is specifically for working in care-related jobs and does not grant the right to study full-time.

To study nursing in the UK, you would need to apply for a student visa or the appropriate visa for full-time study. The student visa allows you to enroll in nursing programs at accredited universities or institutions, and it would provide you with the necessary permission to study.

You can explore options for switching to a student visa if you wish to pursue nursing after having a care assistance work visa, but you’ll need to meet the visa and course requirements.
