CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)-Plans for the next academic year.
The teaching staff are now beginning to return to the School to resume their academic activities. They are working at a pace to change the way we deliver our courses. Moving forward, we will be using blended and e-learning methods. We aim to roll out the modules, which were postponed during the initial stages of COVID-19, in a phased approach, starting in September 2020, over an eight-month period. This is in line with Health Education England (HEE) who have proposed an extension to the education contract period. This is to allow time for the recovery of commissions that were postponed due to the pandemic.
As you will recognise because of COVID-19, plans are constantly changing so we will, as the situation evolves, endeavour to keep you informed. The health and wellbeing of our staff and students are our absolute priority.
If you do have any questions or concerns, please refer to our Student Q&A page or contact us at Student Support Services for more information.

Course summary
This module will focus on developing the student’s history taking, physical examination, and clinical decision-making skills, leading to differential diagnoses. Through the process of Problem-Based Learning, the student will develop the skills required to undertake a comprehensive health assessment of a patient. In addition, the student’s knowledge of diagnostic procedures, the rationale for using them and the interpretation of results will be explored. This module requires that students identify an appropriate mentor, complete the required amount of clinical hours and attend sessions at King’s College anatomy laboratories.
Brings theoretical and practical learning together brilliantly. Looking back now, I gained confidence and competence to apply complex skills learnt over 13 to 15 weeks.
