Study day at Ipswich Hospital for Year 11s

Jan 29th

Ipswich Hospital receives many requests each year from lower sixth-form school students wanting to gain some hospital work experience in preparation for an application to medical school.

Over the past few years they have run a highly successful “So you think you want to be a doctor?” study day that allows an equal opportunity for these students to get a modest amount of exposure to medicine in the hospital environment.

This year, the study day will be held on Saturday 1st March 2025. The Ipswich Hospital, Education Centre, Lecture Theatre.

Year 11s are invited to what will be an educational and entertaining session (10.00am – 14.00pm). Attendees will gain information about university application and medical school through to life as a junior doctor, along with the opportunity to talk to some doctors in training about their experience and try some hands-on activities in our Education department.

You’ll also be able to find out how to gain some work experience during your lower 6th year (once they have turned 17 years of age).

Deadline for applications is Friday 14th February.
