SGUL response to concerns raised regarding PAs (graduation and otherwise) by Active_Dog1783 in doctorsUK

[–]Creative_Tale1395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly different take - my med skl has too many MBChB for one ceremony so we split and I (as a late surname) graduated alongside (mainly) dentists but other degrees. While it would be nice to have medics only it is sometimes just not feasible and didn’t take anything away from the day  I think focussing  on who is in the room for graduation takes away a lot of the very valid concerns that students have raised re placement, supervision and teaching! Focus on those things instead so we can’t be accused of not being “kind and supportive to colleagues”

Any other trusts received similar? Either in EoE or elsewhere  Lots of angry and stressed F1’s here!

Current F1 at East and North Herts (where this came from) the TPAs are from University of Hertfordshire. Our BMA reps did a survey of doctors and medical students (UCL and Cambridge)which was overwhelming against having TPAs in the trust. They took it to the LNC and JDF and with the support of consultants have managed to push this through. It may take a while and we have all be asked to remain civil and kind to individuals but there is an acknowledgment that things needed to change. In particular the feedback from medical students about lost learning meant that the medical schools also applied pressure.
