2026 FPP Update
Due to the timing of the introduction of the proposed Medical Training (Prioritisation) Bill, Foundation Priority Programmes will no longer be offered via a separate recruitment process.
The FPP offers which were due on 21, 26, 28 January 2026 and 02 February 2026 will not take place and there is no longer the opportunity for applicants to apply for FPPs outside of the main allocation process after allocation to a foundation school has taken place. The FPP preferencing deadline of 19 January 2026 is no longer applicable and the Oriel system will be updated shortly. You are no longer required to preference FPP programmes in the FPP vacancy (and this will soon no longer be possible).
