To me, Chesterfield College is more than just an institution; it’s a catalyst for personal growth and transformation. It’s where I discovered my strengths, honed my skills, and forged lifelong friendships. It provided not only academic knowledge but also invaluable life lessons and experiences that have shaped who I am today.”

We have developed two career pathways following advice from employers and universities; a medical, nursing and midwifery pathway and a general care pathway.


We will build on the existing exceptional work across work experience, education and training and are dedicated to progressing this alongside other partners. This joined up working will benefit all our communities, providing opportunities, showcasing our work, supporting our resources and reducing inequalities to health and education.”

I wanted to be a nurse since I was little. My cousin also inspired me as she did the course and told me that she had an amazing experience. She’s now doing Radiography, so she’s got quite far in her career with it. I like learning about disorders, we’re doing it at the minute and I find it quite interesting. You learn about all the different types of disorders and how they can affect a person. I enjoyed the placement that I did on the course which I found interesting. The placement was based in my village, so it was only a two-minute walk which was very convenient for me.”
