To qualify as a mental health nurse, you'll need a degree in mental health nursing. Good GCSEs are a requirement but requirements are quite flexible: C+/4+ in English language, maths and science, plus health and social care will be a good set of GCSEs to have. You could also consider taking biology, chemistry and physics as separate sciences if you feel able. Some schools offer psychology GCSE, which may help.
