The programme promotes critical thinking in the context of advanced clinical practice and is designed to develop the following capabilities:
- Provide and promote safe and effective clinical care to newborn infants in partnership with individuals, families, carers and stakeholders
- Provide values-based facilitative and strategic leadership across the neonatal clinical care pathway
- Advocate and contribute towards a positive learning culture that enables individuals and teams to continuously develop and improve care for newborn infants

The curriculum has been mapped to the British Association of Perinatal Medicine Capabilities Framework for Advanced Neonatal Practice, and the Health Education England Multi-Professional Framework for Advanced Clinical Practice.
The MSc is delivered over two years with eight compulsory taught modules over four semesters and a scientific paper in year two. The programme takes students through a narrative that spans across the four pillars of Advanced Neonatal Practice (Clinical Practice, Leadership and Management, Education, and Research) and progressively helps develop the academic underpinnings to advanced clinical practice within neonatology.
We draw on local expertise at the Royal London Hospital for content delivery and academic supervision. The neonatal unit is part of the Childrens Hospital at the Royal London Hospital, and we have close working relationships with fetal, maternal, paediatric hospital and community services, neonatal/paediatric surgery and the full spectrum of specialist allied healthcare professionals as well as the London Neonatal Transfer Service.
