Please be aware that with the change to Progress+, less than full time trainees will now not automatically progress at the same rate as full time trainees. If you are working LTFT, you will need to let your supervisor and the deanery know prior to ARCP that you wish to be considered to progress at the full time rate; this will then be considered at ARCP, depending on the competencies and portfolio documentation available to the panel at ARCP.
