Social Mobility & Widening Participation

This programme is funded by Health Education England and delivered in collaboration with the Medical Schools Council. In addition to the conference, teachers and advisors are invited to follow-on events. In 2022, these focused on other allied healthcare professions and the admissions process.
Teaching staff from non-selective state schools and colleges across England. Applicants outside of London and from areas with limited university outreach engagement are prioritised.
We encourage applications from schools located in disadvantaged communities (for example, POLAR4 quintiles 1&2, Acorn groups L-Q, and IMD quintiles 1&2) and who’ve achieved below the national average Attainment 8 and Progress 8 scores at GCSE.
The main conference takes place during a day in spring term via Zoom. Additional events will take place in the summer term. We can provide financial support for the cost of supply cover.
Applications usually open in January/February each year dependent on successful MSc funding. The 2023 application form will be open soon and added to this webpage so please do check back.
If you are an interested teacher or careers advisor, please contact Jake Featherstone (jake.featherstone@kcl.ac.uk), Senior Widening Participation Officer (Outreach for Medicine & Dentistry).
