You probably don't need to do A-levels or AS-levels, they have a 'work experience' entry route, where if you're over 21, and have 2 years experience in technology, you can get in without any education beyond high school. Then your continued progress depends on performance in the first few courses, as you'd expect. What's also nice is that like most UK degrees, the course grades are weighted higher towards the layer years with the more advanced courses. It's something like 10% first year, 30% second year, 60% third year. That means that if you're not used to academic work, you can scale up over time, and still get a good grade overall if you hit your stride by the second year.
