The programme lays the foundation for your continuing personal and professional development throughout your career as a Children's Nurse.

Throughout the programme your theoretical studies will be supported by clinical experiences in a range of child settings to include acute children's services and a variety of community environments.

All offers to students are subject to references, occupational health check and enhanced criminal records bureau screening.
