Fitness to Practise/Fitness to Continue in Study

Fitness to Continue in Study- This Policy is expressly intended to be supportive of individual students who may be in distress or difficulty whilst also recognising the right of the wider University community work, study and live free of undue duress/distress caused by others.

Fitness to Practise- To describe an individual as ‘Fit to Practise’ in the context of certain professions is to say he or she possesses the attributes considered necessary in an individual to allow that individual to practise as an independent practitioner in their relevant profession. The Fitness to Practise policy is needed to ensure that, in addition to having achieved the required academic standard, students are deemed 'fit to practise' in their chosen profession.
