Return to Nursing Practice with CU Scarborough
Our Return to Practice course is designed for nurses whose registration has lapsed due to taking a break. Successful completion of the programme will allow readmission to the Nursing and Midwifery Council Register.
CU Scarborough will become a Return to Practice course provider from 2022, and already offers an acclaimed set of nursing programmes to the North Yorkshire region, thanks to its supportive learning environment.
Returners are hugely important to the NHS for their wealth of experience, so the course will be paid for by Health Education England (as long as you are living or working in England and meet all of the entry criteria detailed below), with an extra £1000 for further expenses like childcare. Many returners found that responding to the Covid-19 pandemic was rewarding, wanted to explore a new part of the NHS, or just wanted to make a difference again.

We are delighted to have CU Scarborough (Coventry University’s Scarborough campus) join our regional network of return to practice course providers from 2022.
This is such an important opportunity to help develop our nursing workforce in Yorkshire and we have seen a wide range of motivated and inspiring nursing professionals return to many different roles within the NHS. Many individual returners have also provided incredible support during the Covid-19 pandemic and have realised how important they are, what they still have to offer in nursing and how rewarding the role can be.
Having visited their fantastic campus and worked alongside some of the superb nursing education team, I know that an excellent and supportive learning environment will be provided to all returning nurses.
CU Scarborough also offers the opportunity for any returning nurses from North and East Yorkshire to study a course in their local area and Health Education England look forward to developing a successful working partnership to benefit all returners.
