A student’s fitness to practise is called into question when their behaviour or health raises a serious or persistent cause for concern about their ability or suitability to continue on a course. This includes, but is not limited to, the possibility that they could put patients, the public, other students or staff at risk, and the need to maintain trust in the profession.

If you are a nursing or healthcare student we understand you have specific accommodation requirements to fit in with your differing timetables, workloads and shift patterns. That's why we have created a page of information about the types of accommodation available that will help you concentrate on your studies.
