Medicine
The Mossbourne Medicine Programme runs across both of the Federation’s secondary schools and is comprised of two programmes:
Medical Society for Year 7-11 students
Medicine Bursary for selected Sixth Form students
MedSoc 7-11 is Mossbourne’s internal outreach programme designed to introduce students to the wide range of career paths in healthcare they could aspire to follow.
Activities offered include the UK’s first school-based NHS Cadets course.
In Sixth Form, students can apply to join the Medicine Bursary programme, which has been developed to help young people, especially those who do not have parents who went on to higher education, prepare for the rigorous process of applying to study Medicine, Dentistry or Veterinary Science at university.
Medicine Bursary activities include:
discussions with visiting healthcare professionals
group projects and presentations
simulated medical scenarios
access to relevant work experience and volunteer opportunities
first aid training
expert support and mentoring whilst applying to degree courses
