Where do people live?
It’s a large area, so there’s no ideal place to live: Cambridge is most central. We preference our placements during ST3 and find out during ST3 what they will be. So far the deanery has been good at not changing that unless we wish (eg family need, or post ST6 for subspecialty reasons). Normally mandatory to do a year in Cambridge and a year in Norwich
Is your deanery commutable from one location?
No, it's not possible wherever you live
Regional teaching / FRCS preparation
Deanery teaching hybrid most weeks, with roughly monthly face to face workshops
