If you have the entry requirements which is usually like 5 GCSEs including maths, English and maybe science at grade C or above. I don't see why not

The entry requirements are a grade 6 or above does that change anything?

What's a grade 6, B? If you have the grades then sure if not then you may have to do level 2 health and social care for the first year

Yes it’s B . Would I be able to do level 2 for a year and then do level three extended diploma.

Yeah you can start at level 2 if you don't meet the requirements for level 3. As someone else said grade 6 does seem unusually high.

Ah. They do require 6’s in maths for that, you're right. You don't think you'll get a 6?

Then maybe you could take health and social care at your school but take psychology and biology in private. It is gonna be a bit of money but they won't care if you didn't get a 6.
