Our smaller student intakes lead to greater peer support within cohorts and between year groups. We also offer easy access to support and develop relationships with the students so they feel they can come to us at any time with queries and concerns.

Studying in Portsmouth is more convenient for me as it’s meant I’ve not had to travel far to study. I have found the variety of placements in both high risk care settings and lower risk midwifery useful.

I chose to study midwifery because I am passionate about women’s health; including pregnancy and birth and have always been fascinated with the physiology behind it.
