Your Studies. 2.1 You will be enrolled on the module(s) shown in the Registration Agreement. (Please note that some Open University systems and procedures are currently undergoing development and that module enrolment may sometimes also be referred to as module registration. For the avoidance of doubt, you will be enrolled on a module which is being studied as part of your registered qualification and you will be registered on a module only if you are studying extra modules outside of your qualification and that registration will be subject to a separate Registration Agreement and different conditions.)
a) You will be provided with the module tuition, module materials and module assessments as described in the module description.
b) You agree to study the module materials, submit the module assessments at the times and in the manner specified, and to attend the module examination (if any).
c) If required, and if you are eligible under the assessment rules, your enrolment for a module will include one opportunity for an examination resit or resubmission of the examinable component, as applicable.
2.2 The University has a Code of Practice for Student Assessment which will apply to the assessment of your module(s). The University will apply its academic judgment to determine the extent (if any) to which the learning outcomes of the module(s) have been met.
2.3 If you have told us that you have a disability which might affect your studies, examination or assessment, you must provide us with any further information that we ask you for in order that we may comply with our responsibility under the Equalities Act 2010 to make reasonable adjustments.
2.4 Changing your choice of module(s)
a) If you plan to change your module(s) it is your responsibility to check if your new choice of module may be counted towards your registered qualification.
b) If you wish to change your module choices please make the changes before you proceed. If we have sent you a printed Registration Agreement do not alter or sign it. Please contact us to tell us what changes you want to make and we will send you a new Registration Agreement.
c) If you wish to change your choice of any module(s) or defer study of your module(s) after you are enrolled, you will only be able to do so in the circumstances set out in our Deferrals and Withdrawals Policy.

6.1 You must complete your Nursing qualification within the specified timescale for that qualification (cited in the Regulations and shown on StudentHome), unless you are given an extension at the discretion of the Board of Studies for Health, Wellbeing and Social Care. If you are studying an apprenticeship, any application for an extension must be made in agreement with your Employer and The Open University and must comply with the rules stated by your Funding Provider and regulator. Applications for an extension may be considered where you have been unable to study due to reasons beyond your control (see Appendix A). Other circumstances where an extension may be granted are:
a) if you have been suspended under FtP Procedures and subsequently reinstated;
b) if you lose your job through no fault of your own and are unable to find an immediate replacement (students studying for a Nursing qualification outside of an apprenticeship only).
6.2 If, for any reason, you are unable to complete the Practice Learning Periods for a module: when you return to study, you will be required to complete at least the final Practice Learning Period of the Stage of the Nursing qualification you had reached before interrupting your studies. You may request to have practice hours that you have completed during the module carried forward from those Practice Learning Periods that you have completed in full.
6.3 If you are studying a Nursing qualification outside of an apprenticeship programme, to complete your Open University Nursing qualification, you must study at least every other year, or take an approved study break as set out in the Changing Your Study Plans Policy and Procedure. If you fail to do so, you will be deregistered from your Nursing qualification.
6.4 You may be permitted to begin a module at the next stage of the Nursing qualification before you have completed and received results for a module at an earlier stage. Where this is the case, you must have completed, and received results for the module at the earlier stage within 12 weeks of the start of the module at the later stage. If this is not possible or you do not receive a pass result, you will not be able to start or remain enrolled on the module in the later stage. Version number: 1.0 Approved by: Delegate of Director, Academic Services Effective from: 1 August 2020 Date for review: 1 January 2021
