With the complexities of the curriculum and the array of assessment its good to know that you can readily access useful downloads that are classified according to the curriculum statements.

The advantage of the curriculum is that it tells you what is expected of you in terms of knowledge, skills and attitudes relating to the clinical topics, professional and managerial responsibilities which a competent GP has to master.

In addition to these downloads have a look at the updated chronic disease management page as this page is updated to make sure that it’s bang up to date.

Our downloads offer useful reviews of areas in each curriculum statement, helping you establish a good foundation of knowledge and define your future learning needs.

You can also learn more about the curriculum in the nMRCGP page - how your knowledge, skills and attitudes are assessed and how you can define your learning needs to ensure you navigate your way successful through AKT, CSA and the other Workplace based assessments!
