Educational Supervisor Application Process
NHSE has opened the recruitment process for Educational Supervisors (ES) to work within our primary care training programmes:
Dental Foundation Training (DFT)
Joint Dental Foundation and Core Training (JDFCT)
Dental Therapist Foundation Training (DTFT)
Integrated Dental Care Programme (IDCP)
These training programmes can be a great way of expanding your dental workforce and providing your team with a new focus and interest. Many practices in the region have enjoyed the challenge of helping a new graduate dentist or therapist in their first year of practice, and in some instances these trainees have stayed on past their training year to boost the number of dentists working at the practice in the longer term.
Further details about DFT can be found here: Dental Foundation Training | East of England a YouTube video describing the role of Educational Supervisor can be found here: Introduction to Dental Foundation Training Webinar 12 11 24
The application process for new ESs opened on 28.11.2024. Please be aware that you will need your own nhs.net email address to make an application. New applicants will have a practice visit in January/February 2025. If they are successful in their application, educational training will be provided, and the trainee would start work at your practice on 1st Sept 2025 and complete their post on 31st Aug 2026 (or 31st 2027 for JDFCT).
Applications for becoming an Educational Supervisor, are now being handled by an online process. All applicants, new or current ESs, are invited to log-on to the Dental Educational Supervisor Portal. You can log-on to the portal via a computer:
Educational Supervisor Portal Information | East of England, or via an app on your mobile device. The portal is for Educational Supervisors in all of our primary care training programmes:
Dental Foundation Training
Joint Dental Foundation and Core Training
Dental Therapist Foundation Training
Integrated Dental Care Programme
The portal is now a continuous process and many sections of the portal will remain permanently open for you to amend and update.
Please be aware that the application process for Educational Supervisors will close at
noon on 20th December 2024.
