Abstract
Entry to midwifery education in the United Kingdom (UK) typically requires three A-Levels. However, the commitment to widening access to university has led to a growing number of students accessing midwifery education with ‘non-traditional’ qualifications. It is not known if widening access to include such entry qualifications has an impact on degree attainment or retention of students in midwifery education. This retrospective cohort observation study looked at entry route and outcomes, in a single higher education midwifery programme. Findings identify that route of entry does not have an impact on retention of students or final degree classification awarded.
