Are you inspired to make a difference in the lives of children, young people and their families? Picture yourself as a champion for young patients, addressing their unique health needs with compassion and expertise. By pursuing a postgraduate degree in child field nursing, you’ll be at the cutting edge of care provision for children and young people, ready to lead and innovate in a field that is both challenging and immensely rewarding.

This career path offers not only the chance to grow professionally but also the opportunity to make a profound impact on the future of healthcare for children and young people. Are you ready to take this exciting step?

As students you’ll be self-directed learners supported by academics and clinical practice staff to develop your practical and theoretical knowledge in preparation for entry to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) register.

The programme delivers a learner-centred and flexible approach, using blended learning methods that combine face-to-face and online activities including a practical element undertaken in acute and primary health and social care settings.

Inter-professional learning opportunities are integrated into the curriculum involving students from different healthcare disciplines and engagement with service users and carers through simulation and interactive activities.

During the programme, you’ll learn to care for children and young people with acute / long-term illnesses underpinned by evidence and research-based methodologies essential for health promotion and disease prevention. Some of the clinical practice component will occur within the NHS.

The NHS Values (The NHS values | Health Careers) are shaped by patients and the public and staff have helped develop this expression of values that inspire passion in the NHS and that should underpin everything it does. Individual organisations will develop and build upon these values, tailoring them to their local needs.

The NHS values provide common ground for collaboration and co-operation to achieve shared aspirations, at all levels within the NHS.

As a nursing student, you may be entitled to receive at least £5,000 a year which you don't need to pay back. See the UK government website for more information (NHS Learning Support Fund (LSF) | NHSBSA).

Upon graduation, you’ll be eligible to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
