Changing how healthcare education is funded
Seeks views on how reforms to the education funding for nursing, midwifery and allied health professionals can be implemented.
Detail
The government has proposed that from 1 August 2017, all new nursing, midwifery and allied health professional students on pre-registration undergraduate and post-graduate courses will receive their tuition funding and financial support through the standard student support system, rather than NHS bursaries and tuition funded by Health Education England.
This consultation seeks views on how these reforms can be successfully implemented.
Further guidance about the NHS bursary reforms is available.
