This pathway will need to be confirmed at the start of Level 2 studies in order to ensure that the student has a clear indication of workload and optimal access to their preferred Level 3 modules. Practice Student midwives will spend their clinical placements both in the community and hospital. During each placement experience, students work with qualified practitioners acquiring skills for the provision of high quality care. There is a scheme of continuous assessment both in the theoretical and practical components of the course. Resources Our programmes are taught by highly motivated staff who have specialist areas of expertise within Midwifery Education and Practice.
All students have a personal tutor for support and guidance.
