ITV West Country recently visited Norland to capture our unique BA (Hons) Early Childhood degree and integrated Norland diploma training, speak with staff and students, and learn more about what makes Norland, our training, and our graduate Norland Nannies so special.

The programme includes interviews with Principal Dr Janet Rose, Vice Principal Dr Rebecca Digby, lecturers Kate Jaeger and Penny Bullion-Peters and third-year students Kia and Zoe.

The 5 minute segment was aired on ITVX online on 16 February with a shorter version broadcast on ITV1 6pm News programme on 18 February 2026.
