"After secondary school, I completed the ward clerk course and the HLT37315 certificate in health administration. These courses taught me the nuances of working in this setting and expanded my medical terminology knowledge base. I would be open to continuing my education in the future as I grow in this role and pursue future promotion opportunities."

While most ward clerk positions with the NHS do not have a formal entry requirement, the interviewer will likely still be interested in knowing if you have any formal education or training. An apprenticeship is another excellent alternative to start your career, so if you've completed a Modern Apprenticeship in Healthcare Support (non-clinical) or Business Administration, now is a great time to mention that. If you do not have any education or training, be honest and give a high-level overview of your relevant work experience that will transfer into this role with the NHS.
