Medicine and Dentistry Pathway

Our A-level Medicine and Dentistry programme is meticulously designed to prepare students for successful careers in healthcare, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and experiences necessary for entry into competitive medical and dental schools. This comprehensive programme combines rigorous academic preparation with hands-on opportunities to ensure students excel in their applications and future studies.

Dedicated Support for UKCAT Preparation  
Students receive targeted support in preparing for the UKCAT, a crucial assessment for medical and dental school admissions. Our tailored workshops and resources focus on developing the strategies and skills needed to excel in this challenging exam, ensuring that students are well-equipped for success.

Alumni-led Society and Networking  
Pupils gain exclusive entry into our Medicine and Dentistry Society, run by our esteemed alumni. This society provides invaluable networking opportunities, mentorship, and insight into the realities of working in the healthcare sector, connecting students with professionals who have successfully navigated their own paths in medicine and dentistry.

Access to Scholarly Articles  
To broaden their understanding of current affairs and advancements in the field, students have access to a wealth of scholarly articles. This resource enables them to engage with contemporary medical and dental issues, enhancing their knowledge and critical thinking skills.

Science Newsletter Initiative  
Students take on the responsibility of creating and running our science newsletter, which not only allows them to explore topics of interest but also develops their research, writing, and editorial skills. This initiative fosters collaboration and innovation while providing a platform for students to share their insights with the school community.

Work Experience
We facilitate access to work experience placements at local dental practices, hospitals, and pharmacies, providing students with practical exposure to the healthcare environment. These placements are essential for developing a comprehensive understanding of the field and enhancing their applications.

Personal Statement Support  
Students will receive dedicated personal statement support from the Harris Federation team, including specialist feedback tailored to highlight their unique experiences and aspirations in medicine, dentistry, or pharmacy.

To qualify for this specialist programme, students must achieve a Grade 7 or above in GCSE Biology and Chemistry. If you are dedicated to pursuing a career in medicine, dentistry, or pharmacy, we encourage you to express your interest in joining this programme in your Sixth Form application.
