Essential information
Apprentices are in full time employment whilst studying for the 3.5 year degree so they are able to very quickly utilise their newly acquired knowledge and skills within the workplace for the benefit of patients and service users.
Modules can be delivered on set days throughout the year, with the remainder of the apprentices time spent putting their skills and knowledge into practice either in their employment area or alternative placement areas. These alternative placements enhance the apprentices’ knowledge and understanding of nursing care across a variety of acute and primary care settings in order to meet NMC requirements for registration.
Apprentices’ work will be assessed via a range of methods. Examples may include practical assessments, presentations, essays, reflections, reports, e-portfolios, examinations, and change management proposals.
The majority of teaching takes place from City Campus. Students have full access to university facilities throughout their studies.
Applicants will normally have Level 3 qualifications equivalent to 112 UCAS Tariff points (from A Levels or equivalent, excluding General Studies) and in a relevant subject.
GCSE English Language and Maths Grade 4 or above (Grade C for GCSEs taken before 2017) or equivalent. Key Skills Level 2, Functional Skills Level 2 and the Certificate in Adult Literacy and Adult Numeracy are accepted in place of GCSEs.
