Some courses require a prescribed uniform for hospital and clinical activities. Details are available from the relevant course co-ordinator or administrative officer. Schools may charge students for expendable materials supplied where the materials are consumed by students to their direct personal benefit or where students may wish to have continuing possession of the materials concerned. Students may be charged deposits for non-consumable items issued for temporary use. Schools may recover the cost of lecture notes and other printed material issued to students, provided that no student is compelled to acquire such notes or materials.
Most courses require students to undertake clinical or fieldwork placements.
As students are likely to come into contact with vulnerable people, a police security clearance is required for most placements. The certificate is valid only for the current year and, for courses where a clinical or fieldwork placement is required each year, students will be expected to obtain a new police security clearance each year. Any questions or concerns relating to these checks should be directed to the relevant School office.
