T Level Health Students Celebrate Successful Placements at Peterborough City Hospital

Last week marked a significant milestone for our T Level Health students, as they were presented with certificates to commemorate their final placement day at Peterborough City Hospital, with Rachel Nicholls, CEO of Inspire Education Group (IEG), joining in the celebrations.

T Level qualifications, which include a work placement component, equip students with practical experience and skills essential for their future careers. Having completed their placements in a real-life hospital setting, our students are now well-prepared to meet the demands of the healthcare sector with confidence.

“Going into wards and actually seeing things first hand is a great opportunity for T Level Health students, as they are able to use the theory they’ve learnt at College and simulate it with real patients, alongside real hospital staff”, shared Rebecca Janaway, Assessor & Trainer and Lead HCA Facilitator at North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust. “Giving them this experience at such a young age is really beneficial for both the students and the NHS, because they develop an understanding of how everything works. If they go on to do nursing at university, they already have a head start”. 

Peterborough College student, Bella Gillick, thoroughly enjoyed the industry placement, sharing, “Practising at Peterborough City Hospital gave me a real insight into what the working world is like. I specialised in medicine for the elderly, witnessing observations, emergency bells and board meetings. It’s given me such a wide scope of knowledge, opening up lots of career pathways”. 

As these T Level students embark on their future careers, they do so with a strong foundation of practical experience and a deep understanding of the healthcare sector. Congratulations to all the students who have received their certificates!
