The Coventry and Warwickshire Scheme is based in the Clinical Sciences Building at the University Hospital of Coventry and Warwickshire, in the Walsgrave triangle close to Junction 2 of the M6. We are fortunate to have a modern building with seminar rooms, a lecture theatre, modern library with computer suite and a canteen. Our hands-on days will take place at Birmingham Dental Hospital and School of Dentistry, Pebble Mill Road Birmingham. We have a cohort of experienced and friendly Educational Supervisors who have a wide range of clinical experience and are willing to support foundation dentists in their development. We also have a wide range of skilled and expert subject teachers who will help you develop your clinical, professional, management and communication skills over the training year.
The Training Programme Director is Peter Thornley. Peter has been involved in foundation training for over ten years. Previously he was the chief examiner for the MFGDP and then MJDF examinations. He works as a general dental practitioner in a training practice in Sutton Coldfield and has a special interest in Orthodontics. He is currently vice-chair of Birmingham Local Dental Committee and chair of the Sutton Coldfield BDA section.
