History
Canterbury Christ Church College was the first teacher training college established by the Church of England in the twentieth century. It was founded in 1962 particularly to meet the needs of Church schools at a time of an acute teacher shortage.Classes were originally held in a building adjacent to St Martin’s Church, St Martin’s Priory, which had been the home of Bishop Rose, a Bishop of Dover.The task confronting the first Principal, the Reverend Frederic Mason, was a daunting one. Without any new buildings in which to teach or accommodate his students, Dr Mason commented: "It is perhaps symptomatic of conditions today that before the sketches and plans had been passed we had been asked to take 460 students."On Tuesday 25th September 1962, the first students, 75 young men and women, arrived to register and commence their studies. The following day, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Michael Ramsay, attended morning prayers in St Martin’s Church....

I finished my Nursing Studies at Canterbury Christ Church University last month. I really enjoyed my time there on the nursing course.. Plenty of good memories and times... Just an amazing experience, I have no regrets. These past three years have set me up for the rest of my life. I chose this university based on its location, wide open campus and that the course I wanted to do was interesting. I enjoyed my time as an undergraduate here, which further reinforced my decision to do a post-graduate. Also there were over 50 pubs within the city walls - now come on!

Practice placements were definitely the best part of the course. Gaining experience in different clinical areas was really interesting. The opportunity to work as part of a team is great and it helps with the transition from student to qualified nurse.
