Structure
In line with national recommendations, GP training at Reading and Newbury is a three year programme. The first two years (ST1 and 2) are made up of four, six month placements. Normally three of these will be in hospital placements and one in general practice. The final year (ST3) is spent in a general practice, usually a different one to you were in in ST1 or 2, learning closely from your trainer- an apprenticeship type model. In this year you can expect to be a full member of the practice involved in all aspects of it's day to day running.
