Duration (years)

Train to excel in an important and highly valued area of nursing. As a children’s nurse you could have an incredibly positive impact on the health and wellbeing of young people, from newborns to 19-year-olds.

On this course you’ll discover the health and wellbeing needs of children and young people and learn how to give growing minds and bodies the care and support they need. You’ll explore developmental anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology, and discover the emotional and social development needs of children and young people too. You’ll learn how to care for the unwell, as well as how to promote healthy development and prevent physical and mental ill health.

About

Your Children’s Nursing degree will prepare you for essential nursing practice, working in partnership with children, young people and their families, providing care to those with acute, long-term and complex and disabling healthcare conditions and needs. This includes mental health care, as younger people living with long-term conditions are vulnerable to developing emotional disorders.

As well as learning how to care for children and young people who are unwell, you’ll also learn how to help them and those who care for them to foster healthy behaviours contributing to their health and wellbeing into adulthood.

Your programme includes partnership working with other healthcare students, gaining unique insight into other professional perspectives. This will enable you to cultivate the collaborative and adaptable approach that is essential to a successful nursing career.

Your studies will be split 50/50 between theory and practice, developing a robust understanding of the evidence base and skills required to provide optimum person and family centred care. Your placements cover a range of experiences in acute, primary and community settings with a range of placement providers.

You will graduate able to meet the physical, cognitive, emotional and social developmental needs of children and young people, with a variety of clinical conditions and complex health challenges, in a wide range of healthcare settings.

With the NHS Constitution at its core, our Children’s Nursing degree provides rigorous training, fantastic placement opportunities and is fully approved by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

Important Information

Whilst the University will make every effort to offer the courses listed, changes may sometimes be made arising from the regular review of course programmes. Where this activity leads to significant (but not minor) changes to programmes, there will normally be prior consultation of students and others. Changes may for example consist of variations to the content and method of delivery of programmes, courses and other services, to discontinue programmes, courses and other services and to merge or combine programmes or courses. The University will endeavour to keep such changes to a minimum, and will inform students.

Assessment for Year 1

You will be assessed using a range of methods, carefully chosen to reflect your ability to apply the relevant theory to practice.

UEA’s contemporary assessment strategy includes written assignments, examinations, presentations and posters. In the final year, you will complete a project, which will illustrate your deeper understanding of the relationship between the theory and practice of nursing.

You will also be assessed in practice during your practice placements.

Structure

To meet the requirements of the NMC Pre-registration nursing standards, in each Year (Parts) you will study core modules delivered simultaneously across the year.

In year 1, you will study:

Becoming a Professional module: This module addresses the professionalism of nursing to enable students to deliver safe and effective person-centred and evidence-based care. Subject content will include; legal and ethical issues professional values, professional relationships, boundaries and developing your academic skills.

Facilitating Health and Wellbeing: This module aims to provide knowledge and skills to enable you to take a life course approach to the promotion of health, prevention of ill health and management of health challenges with individuals, communities and at population level.

Nursing Practice and Simulation 1: this module encompasses core and field specific learning centred on professional values in both practice placements and simulation sessions in school.

In addition to these modules, in Years 1 and 2 you will engage in Interprofessional Learning activities exploring collaboration and teamworking with other healthcare students across the faculty as this is essential to effective person-centred care.

Teaching and Learning

Our degree programme employs a range of learning methods, designed to link nursing theory and nursing practice. Throughout your course you’ll cultivate your ability to learn autonomously and in partnership with others, including wider healthcare teams. In academic modules, you’ll learn through small-group teaching, lectures and self-directed study, scheduled between 9am and 7pm. In your clinical practice placements you’ll learn through hands-on experience. These are designed to reflect the typical working patterns of a qualified nurse.

You’ll have access to educational resources including presentations, workbooks and posters, as well as digital platforms such as our virtual classrooms and online learning resources. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn directly from people who have experienced healthcare services.

In clinical practice placements you will be learning with the support of registered nurses, members of the healthcare team and those using healthcare services. Your theoretical learning will enhance your clinical practice learning so that you develop the necessary evidence-based practice to deliver safe and effective nursing care.

You’ll work closely with children, young people and their families and carers, gaining the confidence you need to begin your career as children’s nurse after graduation. By the end of your course, you will have built up an individual learning profile, which will demonstrate that you have completed the requirements for professional registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

One of our key aims is to promote your ability to learn autonomously and in partnership with others, including the wider healthcare team.

Independent study

You will be encouraged to read and engage with a wide range of sources to aid your learning. You’ll have access to resources to support your learning and help you to develop an effective approach to self-directed study.

Students for whom english is a foreign language

We welcome applications from students whose first language is not English. We require evidence of proficiency in English (including reading, writing, speaking and listening) at the level of IELTS 7.0 overall (minimum 7.0 in each component). Review our English Language Equivalences for a list of example qualifications that we can accept to meet this requirement.

INTO UEA offer a variety of English language programmes which are designed to help you develop the English skills necessary for successful undergraduate study:

Pre-sessional English at INTO UEA

Academic English at INTO UEA

Interviews

The strongest applicants will be invited to interview. Please note that meeting (or being predicted to meet) the minimum academic entry requirements will not guarantee that you will be selected for interview.

Interview invitations will be sent by email. Please keep a close eye on all emails from UEA after you submit your UCAS application.

Interview format

Interviews for entry in 2022 will take place in person (on our campus) from January onwards. The interviews will be with academic staff members from the School of Health Sciences, and may also include clinicians from the profession you are applying for, 3rd year students from the course or local school children. For a little bit more information on the interview process, view our Plan Your Visit page and navigate to 'Health Sciences Interviews'.

Note that we do not disclose interview questions, but in general terms the interviews will explore a range of issues, including your suitability for the profession and the NHS values (as reflected in the NHS constitution). We’ll look to consider your motivation to study this course, as well as whether you have an interest in people and a clear understanding of the profession (ideally with relevant voluntary or paid work in healthcare).

Experience of healthcare

We are aware that it is a difficult time to try to gain relevant experience in healthcare. First time applicants to Nursing, Midwifery and the Allied Health Professions will all be in a similar situation. We will take this into account and will adapt our expectations.

Keep in mind that clinical work experience is not generally a requirement for applying to train in healthcare, but it is important to show that you are able to work with people and appreciate the health and social care setting. It is important to remember why we look for work experience in an application; this in turn can help you think of the numerous ways that you might be able to demonstrate how you have acquired relevant experience.

We will want to see that you understand what a career in Health involves. Work experience, and other related experiences, are only as valuable as the way you talk about them and what understanding you take from them. While we will expect you to show some understanding of what it is like to be the professional of your choice, part of this involves demonstrating that you know what it is like to work in a responsible role, particularly with the public.

What type of experience do you need?

Any activity or life experience that helps you to prepare for training to be a healthcare professional will help. This means any activity that allows you to demonstrate that you have:

Had people-focused experience of providing a service, care, support or help to others, and that you understand the realities of working in a caring profession.
Developed some of the values, attitudes and behaviours essential to being a Nurse, Midwife or Allied Health professional such as conscientiousness, effective communication and the ability to interact with a wide variety of people. The values that we are looking for are set out in the NHS Constitution.
A realistic understanding of Health and Social Care and in particular the physical, organisational and emotional demands of the career.

Practical ways to gain experience

Keep a reflective diary on what is happening in the news and online. Listen to what healthcare professionals have to say and reflect on this. All healthcare professionals can be a valuable source of information and experience, not just those that work in the specific profession that you are applying for. Demonstrating that you have a sense of all healthcare professions (and how they work together) will help you in both your personal statement and interview.

Volunteer in your spare time if you can, all forms of voluntary work can provide helpful work experience. Whilst volunteer work in the NHS might be disrupted at this time, other schemes may still be in operation and worth exploring i.e. working with other people in a caring or service role. Voluntary commitments to community groups (for example groups related to the work of churches, mosques and temples, or other groups such as Scouts or Guides) and online community support groups may also provide valuable experience of taking on responsibility, dealing with people and communicating effectively. It is likely that these sorts of volunteering opportunities will start to run again before healthcare related opportunities are available.

Remember: it is what you learn about yourself, about other people and about how effective care is delivered and received that counts. What you did is only a small part of the story; it is how you communicate what you learnt which matters.

PROGRAMME CONDITIONS

Offers to successful applicants will be subject to a successful interview, a satisfactory occupational health check (including evidence of appropriate immunisations), an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check and two satisfactory references.

PLACEMENTS

During the course, no less than 50% of your time will be spent on practice placement. This might be in a variety of settings that include hospitals, community services, general practice, social services and voluntary or private organisations. Placement allocation occurs throughout the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire.

As this course includes patient facing placements in health or social care settings, and these are a mandatory component of the course, you will need to comply with the placement vaccination policy. Failure to meet the placement vaccination policy may prevent you from joining the course or may lead to your withdrawal from the course in the future. Future employment may also be subject to this condition.

Applicants who are under 18 at the start of the course

There is no minimum age requirement to study at UEA, however courses in the School of Health Sciences involve considerable patient contact and placements from year one. In view of this, students who will not be 18 years old at the time that they start the course may wish to consider applying for deferred entry.

Gap year

We welcome applications from students who have already taken or intend to take a gap year. We believe that a year between school and university can be of substantial benefit. If you intend to apply with deferred entry, please let us know about your gap year plans in your UCAS application.

Progression Requirements

Once enrolled onto your course at UEA, your progression and continuation (which may include your eligibility for study abroad, overseas experience, placement or year in industry opportunities) is contingent on meeting the assessment requirements which are relevant to the course on which you are enrolled.

Intakes

This course is open to UK and overseas applicants. The annual intake for this course is in September each year.
