Welcome to the Severn Postgraduate School of Paediatrics website. This is the way the school will keep you up-to-date about training days, courses, recruitment, ARCP and RITA schedules as well as other useful and important information to keep you posted with what is happening.

 

Every trainee in the School of Paediatrics is required to create a user account and password for this website. In the near future, your password will give you access to information and tools to help you communicate with your colleagues and with the faculty. In the coming months we will be adding more content to these pages; please bookmark this site and check back on a regular basis to make sure you are fully up-to-date.

 
As part of the account setup process, you will be asked to provide a contact email address and telephone number; these will be the school's primary media for communication with you.  It is very important that you keep these details up-to-date as you move around the different trusts and hospitals of the Severn Deanery.

If you are a new trainee starting in September 2009, you should by now have received an introduction email containing instructions for creating your user account. If you have not received the email, please click the "Request Membership" link in the top right hand corner of the page. Please note that because of our security policies, forgotten passwords cannot be recovered, but must be reset.  If you have forgotten your password, please reset it via the logon page.
 

What will be in which section*

  • New to the Programme (outline of paediatric training from ST1 to ST8, description of posts and training centres)
  • Faculty (who is who, who does what and their contact details)
  • Assessment and Appraisals (useful information and forms to complete for RITA or ARCP assessments)
  • Resources (commonly requested forms and links to other sources of information)
  • Professional Networking (communicate with fellow trainees and faculty)
  • Critical incident reporting (quick and easy way to report a concern about the programme)
  • Fast-lynx (in a hurry? this will be a page for the most commonly requested items!)
 
*Please bear in mind that this site is under construction. Any suggestions for site content, please contact the School faculty.
