Course summary


Many nurses may wish to undertake training for a different part of the nursing register at some point in their career. This course provides a conversion opportunity for nurses to move from one part of the nursing register to children’s nursing.


Why study BSc (Hons) Children's & Young People's Nursing (Advanced Standing) at BU?

- This is a cross conversion course for qualified nurses wanting to undertake training for a different pathway of nursing, e.g. convert from a Adult Nurse to an Children's and Young People's Nurse. - Successful completion of this 2-year course will lead to a qualification in BSc (Hons) Children’s & Young People’s Nursing- Acceptance on to the programme depends on a number of factors, for example: initial field of registration, a 2:2 honours degree or equivalent in Nursing, the date of the applicant’s original registration and the availability of adequate resources to enable the applicant to join the programme with advanced standing e.g. vacancies within programmes, or placements.- Caring for children and young people is a challenging but rewarding career. You’ll work closely with children, young people - from new-borns to adolescents - and their families- 50% of the course is spent in practice placements to gain nursing experience in diverse locations including schools, children’s hospital wards and community settings like children’s hospices- Become immersed in the science and art of child-centred nursing in our newly built skills facilities including simulated hospital wards and community home settings. 100% of graduates are either working or studying fifteen months after graduating - Learn from experienced and knowledgeable registered nurses and other healthcare practitioners.
