Primary school children's participation in selecting children's nursing students.

Despite the importance of seeking children's views in healthcare being widely recognised, there are few reports of child service user involvement in selecting children's nursing students. At Oxford Brookes University, the children's nursing team has had three years' experience of partnership with a local primary school where children have engaged in the selection of children's nursing students. At the end of the first year of the initiative an evaluation was undertaken to elicit the children's views about their experience of participating in an interview day.
