2-YEAR ACADEMIC FOUNDATION PROGRAMMES AT UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON MEDICAL SCHOOL (UCL) 1. INTRODUCTION The North Central Thames Foundation School (NCTFS) is a Foundation School of the London Deanery, based at UCL Medical School. NCTFS offers 25 academic places, within 8 rotations, comprising different speciality-based academic programmes. The two-year programmes will deliver the full range of competences required of the Foundation Programme Curriculum. The F1 Year will be within the London area, although not at the same hospital as the F2 year. The F2 programmes will each include a placement in a centre of academic and research excellence. Successful applicants will be offered a list of available F1 posts and asked to rank them according to their preferences. The outcome will depend on their academic application score. During F2, all doctors accepted for the academic programme will have: • A 4-month academic attachment as one element of their 12-month rotation (except for the Whittington, where the attachment is for 3 months). • A mentor throughout the year. • A core programme run throughout the year aimed to develop academic skills. • Visitor status within the appropriate Division to enable access to UCL on-line library facilities. 2.
