Hi, don't worry too much at all it's ok. Many sixth forms also offer vocational courses as opposed to a levels. For example long road sixth form in Cambridge, they have many courses know as applied courses and T levels. These require 5 GCSEs that have a grade 4. I'm sure there's other sixth forms near where you live that offer similar courses. I currently have a friend doing a child care course at long road and she absolutely loves it!

Remember GCSEs are not the end of the world, you have a long way to go and theres many things you can do with whatever grades you get. Grades do NOT define you 😊.
