Inter Foundation School Transfers

A central application process has been introduced for F1 trainees working as part of a two-year programme to apply for a transfer to take effect from the start of their F2 year.  Please note that the application window for this process is set nationally by the UKFP, and information is included here for information only.

In order to be considered for a Foundation School transfer, an applicant's circumstances must have changed since F1 allocation.

It is recognised that situations will arise outside of this process, therefore the option to apply for a transfer outside of the central process throughout the course of the programme will continue to be available for in the event of exceptional circumstances.

Foundation doctors wishing to apply for an Inter Foundation School Transfer should read the guidance and download the form from the national UK Foundation Programme website, complete and return to the Foundation School within the specified time frame.    Foundation doctors wishing to transfer into the Peninsula must consult their home Foundation School in the first instance.

Application Window: TBC

The IFST application window for the 2024-25 training year is TBC.

Full guidance and application forms can be found on the UKFPO Website
