Training Practice Status

Last Updated: Wednesday, 26 July 2023

Dr Scott is our designated trainer. He and all the partners are enthusiastic about training so our GP registrars are supported by the whole practice. 

We usually have one or two registrars in post and teaching concentrates on consultation skills, clinical problems and specific clinical areas.

GP registrar workload is carefully controlled to be at a level consistent with the registrar's abilities and experience. In practice this means seeing patients alone only after an induction period, initially with 20-minute appointments (the standard for the practice is 10 or 15 minutes).

Registrars are encouraged to arrange study outside of the practice. This supports their MRCGP qualification, using work based assessments, E portfolio and the planning for other qualifications such as the Family Planning Certificate.
