It is a very competetive course. There are changes afoot to make the degree undergraduate rather than foundation degree. Have a look here https://www.collegeofparamedics.co.uk/home/ and https://www.collegeof..._become_a_paramedic/.
My University offers 25 places a year, we usually get 2- 3000 applications for the course.
