This page provides the information about the mandatory process of approval or renewal as a GP Supervisor. General Practitioners can apply for General Medical Council recognition as a Clinical Supervisor (CS) or Educational Supervisor (ES) during attendance of the relevant course. Renewal is required 2 years after the first approval, then every 5 years.
The first step of both the approval and the renewal processes is that the relevant set of forms need to be filled in and emailed to england.ksspc.educationquality@nhs.net as a complete batch of Word files. For security reasons, we are unable to open .zip files. These forms should adhere to the templates found in the lists below.
Please note that incomplete sets of forms, or missing details, cause delays.
