The Southampton Wave.
The course planning team at Southampton University College of Midwifery wanted to offer a diploma course which reflected the realities of midwifery education in the clinical setting. For this a curriculum model--The Wave--was developed. The Wave is not a static model, but reflects the changes a midwifery curriculum must absorb in context and circumstances. Allocation of students to clinical areas is linked with course content, allowing direct application of theory to practice and practice to theory.
