Manchester has delivered outstanding medical education for almost 150 years. We are the largest medical school in the UK, with over 2,200 undergraduate medical students.<\/p>\n

The MB ChB Community Team recruits enthusiastic and highly motivated tutors to supervise and deliver teaching to our students as appropriate to their level of study while encouraging them to consider general practice as a career.<\/p>\n

You can teach students from any year of the Medicine course at Manchester, whether you host them on placements at your practice or supervise their projects.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text: How you can get involved – RHS” _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n

These opportunities include our Early Clinical Experience<\/a> placements for Year 1 and 2 students, Advancing Clinical Practice<\/a> placements (Year 4) and GP Block<\/a>\u00a0placements (Year 5), all of which receive excellent feedback annually from our students.<\/p>\n

Placements can range from half-day visits to longer arrangements lasting for several weeks. You can offer as many or as few placements as your practice has capacity for.<\/p>\n

You don’t need to have a teaching qualification to join us, and support is offered throughout your time with us. Other staff at your practice can also get involved with the placements.<\/p>\n

“The whole experience from start to finish has been great, from having the PRiME training to the … team’s support, and then our two 5th years in our practice. If I had to sum up my advice to GPs apprehensive about taking on the first student, I’d just say make sure you know why you’re doing it and then start as you mean to go on.”
