The four foundation schools within the Thames Foundation School Scheme (TFSS) have developed under the auspices of the London, Eastern and KSS Deaneries to provide training across a wide geographical area and are currently managed by the London Deanery (North Thames) and KSS Deanery (South Thames).

Details of the two year programmes are available on the UKFPO website. 

Important Information for FP 2012 and 2013 Applicants

The Improving Selection to the Foundation Programme Project Group has made recommendations to the UK’s four Health departments.

The Group has recommended that Situational Judgment Tests (SJT) and Educational Performance Measures (EPM) form part of the national application process.

2012 applicants will apply as normal for Foundation programmes and will take part in a national Parallel Recruitment Exercise that will develop the new tests.

2013 applicants will be selected using the SJT and EPM which will replace the current system.
