Council Tax discount for traditional student nurses

You are considered to be a student nurse if you are taking a course which would (if successfully completed) lead to first registration in the Nurses' Part or the Midwives' Part of the register maintained by the Nursing and Midwifery Council under article 5 of the Nursing and Midwifery Order 2001.

The disregard applies for as long as training is undertaken prior to registration.

Please note that Traditional Student Nurses do not give rise to an exemption as with other students.

To apply for or cancel a discount or exemption please contact us.

You will need to provide:

• your council tax reference
• your full names
• your address
• the discount you wish to apply for, for example single person discount
• the date you wish to claim the discount from or the date the change in your circumstance is taking place
