About us

UCL Medical School (UCLMS) is committed to excellence in undergraduate and postgraduate medical education, with a strong reputation for research informed teaching and curriculum innovation.

UCL Medical School's Clinical and Professional Practice (CPP) modules make up 20% of the overall MBBS programme, with learning in CPP central to understanding medicine as an integrated whole.

About the role

The main role of Clinical and Professional Practice Tutors is to facilitate student learning through small group work. This will involve planning and preparing for designated teaching sessions; working with relevant resources to deliver teaching, in close collaboration with CPP Module Leads / Lead CPP Tutors. There will also be a small amount of CPP course assessment marking.

Teaching may take place at the Whittington Hospital, the Royal Free Hospital and/or on our Bloomsbury campus for Years 1, 2 and 4.

For the academic year 2026/27:

• Year 1 tutors will have sessions on alternate Thursday mornings (9 am 1 pm) in the Autumn and Spring Terms (or all weeks if you have two groups). You will have the same small group (up to 18 students) all year.
• Year 2 tutors will have sessions on alternate Friday mornings (9 am 1 pm) in the Autumn and Spring Terms (or all weeks if you have two groups). You have the same small group (up to 18 students) all year.
• Year 4 tutors teach on Thursday afternoons (2 5 pm) from 2 to 8 weeks in length (depending on the topic).
• We may also be looking for Year 4 Ethics & Law and Year 4 Mental Health tutors depending on rota fluctuations.

There are two tutor training mornings each year. Successful candidates will need to be available to attend training on 17th September 2026 and 7th January 2027.

Teaching will start late September for Year 4.

The appointment is available from 1st October 2026.
