About Nursing Foundation Year, FdSc - at Kingston University London

We recognise that there are many routes to success at degree level. This foundation year option provides an entry route for students from a wide range of backgrounds who may not have the traditional entry qualifications to join the first year of a nursing degree.

This foundation year will help you develop both personally and professionally, providing you with the tools to begin your journey towards becoming a competent, sensitive professional who can perform effectively in a variety of settings and work in collaboration with other professionals.

You will develop practical, technical and communication skills, and apply knowledge to real-life problems.

You will gain awareness of the attitudes and behaviours required by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) to succeed on a professional programme, and in your future career. You will also learn about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) and how these link to healthcare.

What’s more, Kingston’s TEF Gold award recognises our commitment to teaching excellence, ensuring you receive quality support throughout your studies.
