Norland College

Norland College is a British higher education provider based in Bath, Somerset. The college specialises in childcare, and is widely known for its prestigious training of nannies, nursery nurses and other childcare professionals, who are employed worldwide.

Norland nannies are seen as a status symbol[1][2] and are popular among celebrities and royals.[3] Alumni are termed "Norlanders".[2] Norland offers one degree programme: the BA (Hons) in Early Years Development and Learning, previously in association with the University of Gloucestershire.[4] In March 2019, Norland was awarded Taught Degree Awarding Powers by the Privy Council, which allows it to offer the degree through their institution, as well as enabling it to mark all student assessments internally.[5] It also offers the prestigious Norland Diploma.
