UK graduates to be given preference for Foundation Training

UK graduates to be given preference for Foundation Training

GDPUK EXCLUSIVE

Applications for Dental Foundation Training (DFT) in 2014 opened on August 23. Hidden in the new ‘Person Specification’ it says that it is ‘desirable’ that the candidate requires DFT ‘as the only route to access the NHS Dental Performers List’. UK graduates should therefore have preference over those from the rest of the EEA in the coming round.

Dentists’ income fell in 2011/12
Statistics released on 22nd August 2013 by the Health and Social Care Information Centre (http://tinyurl.com/k4kkxzm) show that self-employed primary care dentists in England and Wales in 2011/12 had gross earnings decreasing more than total expenses resulting in a drop in taxable income. The figures cover NHS and private income for those working in the NHS, but do not include those working only in the private sector, nor corporates.
