10 TPD sessions are being advertised to work on Differential Attainment (DA) across the East Midlands until March 2027. Sessions are being advertised internally and will be appointed as either 0.5 or 1 session posts.
The Differential Attainment (DA) GP TPDs will be responsible for the management, delivery and evaluation of the following workstreams, and we would particularly welcome applications from educators already working in these areas:
- AKT Saturdays
- AKT intensive course
- AKT 1:1s
- SCA Saturdays
- SCA 1:1s
Sessions are also available to support the structured learning programmes (SLPs) on an ad-hoc basis – mainly contributing to communication skills sessions +/- evaluations. TPDs would need to be available on a Monday or Tuesday for the SLP sessions.
There will also be an opportunity to work on other evolving DA workstreams.
Applicants should be experienced GP educators with a commitment to reducing differential attainment and supporting trainees from under-represented groups.
