<p>Health Education England continues to work with stakeholders including patient
groups, eating disorder charities, the General Medical Council (GMC), Academy of Medical
Royal Colleges, and the Medical Schools Council and is contributing to ongoing work
to standardise the undergraduate and postgraduate training for doctors across the
specialties, sharing best practice, learning and expertise across the wider workforce
and health care professionals.</p><p> </p><p>Each individual medical school sets its
own undergraduate medical curriculum. These must meet the standards set by the GMC,
which then monitors schools to make sure that these standards are maintained. The
GMC sets out the knowledge, skills and behaviours that new United Kingdom medical
graduates must be able to demonstrate. All doctors including general practitioners
will receive training that will enable them to identify the conditions, take appropriate
action and refer as appropriate.</p><p> </p><p>The curricula for postgraduate specialty
training are set by individual royal colleges and faculties, and the GMC approves
curricula and assessment systems for each training programme.</p>
