57 Suffolk College Nursing Students Achieve 100% Pass Mark - 16 October 2003

57 students, having achieved a 100% pass rate for the Diploma in Higher Education in Nursing – Adult, Children’s and the joint award (Learning Disabilities and Social Work), will be graduating from Suffolk College later this month

The students completed their practical training at The Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust, West Suffolk Hospital NHS Trust and James Paget Hospital NHS Trust, and in the surrounding communities.

Success is the reward of three years hard work on behalf of the students and demonstrates the strength of the partnership between Suffolk College and our service partners.

In addition, two students will be graduating from the BSc(Hons) Adult Nursing programme with 1st class honours – a tremendous achievement.

These students will provide a source of highly competent nurses to add to the local workforce in Suffolk and South Norfolk.
