Professor Chris Warwick
Primary Care Dean & Deputy Postgraduate Dean
As Primary Care Dean I have overall responsibility for the Primary Care Department and team. I work closely with Associate Deans and the administrative team to oversee GP education and continuing professional development within primary care. I work with colleagues across the South East and London and directly support the Postgraduate Dean, Dr Jo Szram.
In my limited free time, I am a working GP and live in Surrey with my family.
Dr Liz Norris
Head of GP School & Deputy Primary Care Dean
I am responsible for quality management of the GP Specialty Training Schemes across Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
I support GP trainees in their education, assessments and clinical practice and address any concerns they may have. I have a keen interest in the AKT and CSA examinations and in reducing differential attainment across the region.
Allison Hawes
Head of School of Primary Care
As the Head of School of Primary Care, I support the training hubs in KSS to increase educator capacity and deliver the quality management of learning environments. Since the school’s inception in 2021, we work increasingly closely with GP school colleagues to create a seamless approach to quality assurance of both educators and learning environments. I am a registered nurse, health visitor and Queens Nurse and am delighted to lead the development of the wider multi-professional, medical and practice admin workforce colleagues including our under-graduate learners and apprentices.
Danny Bartlett
Danny comes to the Primary Care School after working as a pharmacist within general practice for over 5 years. He teaches at the University of Brighton at both the undergraduate and postgraduate level and is passionate about all things education and workforce. He has led on some great innovative placement projects as well as developing and expanding supervision and clinical competence of multiprofessionals within primary care. Although a pharmacist by background, he is keen to broaden and link all professions within the school to a centralised and targeted mission at improving education, development and retention of all staff within primary care.
Professor Kim Stillman
Associate Dean Lead for Place Based Learning
The Primary Care School (PCS) is a new structure intended to support and develop the quality management of all learner placements (especially those multi-professional placements which have traditionally been more challenging to source) in primary care. I work closely with Dr Norris and Professor Warwick collaborating with colleagues in the GP School.
I lead on Training Hub development and the wider multi-professional workforce across Kent, Surrey and Sussex.

Judith Marsh
Locality Training Hub Clinical Lead for East Kent

I enjoy ‘joining up the dots’ with system partners locally and nationally, ensuring our workforce is fit for the future.
Whilst maintaining my clinical skills I collaborate with the multi-professional team in the Training Hub to support our primary care teams with resilience, recruitment and retention through education and learning initiatives, supporting the delivery of HEE priorities.
