Fitness to Practise

The University aims to provide our students on courses that are accredited by Professional, Statutory and Regulatory Bodies (PSRBs) with the support, skills, knowledge, understanding, professional capabilities and competencies to ensure that they can champion the trust and principles of their chosen profession.

The Fitness to Practise process exists to support our students to meet the professional standards of the regulatory bodies that approve, accredit and recognise the students’ chosen vocation, qualification and future career. Each PSRB, has their own professional standards and/or principles and students should make themselves aware of their course specific requirements.

This policy acknowledges that there are entry-level behaviours, competencies, performance and skills needed in any PSRB course. However, during a student’s journey they may need support or adjustments to meet the full expected standards required and maintain public confidence in the professions covered by the policy. 

Please see policies for 2025-26 and 2026-27 below. For previous academic years' policies please contact casework@londonmet.ac.uk.
