Rejected petition Enable Student Paramedics equal access to the NHS learning support fund.

Allow all student Paramedics equal access to the NHS Learning Support fund which is currently available to all other Allied Health professionals now that the regulatory body minimum requirement for registration has changed to degree level.

More details

The HCPC now require all new paramedic registrants to possess a BSc as a minimum requirement for registration which has led to all programmes being delivered within Higher education establishments. Paramedic students are now self-funding their education with no support at all received directly from Health education England and no access to funding.
