The following statement was released by HEE:

Message from Professor Wendy Reid, Acting Chief Executive for Health Education England

On 21 May 2020, the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) agreed a policy for registering pharmacists on a provisional basis as part of the regulator’s response to the pandemic. 

We understand that pre-registration pharmacists and tutors will continue to have many queries, and welcome your support in reaching out to them with this message from Professor Wendy Reid, Acting Chief Executive for Health Education England.

The Pre-registration Training Programme Directors/Leads will continue to support pre-registration pharmacists and tutors, and encourage them to use our Pre-registration Pharmacy Questions Portal to anonymously submit questions and concerns.

Our FAQs for pre-registration trainees, tutors and employers will be updated shortly, working alongside the GPhC’s Q&As

We will continue to work with our teams, partners and stakeholders in these extraordinary circumstances, to support pre-registration trainees, tutors and employers over the coming months.

Thank you, on behalf of HEE’s Regional Pharmacy Deans, for cascading this message via your channels and networks.

Kind regards
