Schedule for new Paramedic Practice at Edge Hill student

I'm due to start at Edge Hill as a paramedic student this September and I'm trying to sort out some things with my current workplace.
I understand schedule can look different depending on whether it's academic/campus learning or if it's placement time, but I would appreciate an example schedule from first-year students. Things like:
1) What hours and how many days on campus did you have during study times?
2) When did your first placement block start and how long did it last?
3) What kind of shifts did you do on placement and how many a week - were they in a pattern or random?

Also, not sure who I could contact at uni about past schedule examples - admissions, the paramedic programme lead, etc?

Contact the paramedic course lead at the uni. Although next year's timetable won't be available yet, a copy of the current timetable will give you an idea of what to expect.
