Histopathology ST1 Application for 2022

Hi guys I have just accepted an offer a day ago from the recyclings, is there anything else i need to do or just wait?

Congrats! Where are you off to?
Hang fire, the deaneries will send us details soon in may/June time most likely. Just make sure you get your referees to do your references?!

Anyone else get an email from Trac stating St Helens and Knowsley have added you to their employment system? I am a bit confused as I had accepted an offer in the East Midlands North deanery. Wondering if its a national recruitment process?? 😕

Hi guys,

Hope you’re all doing well!
Is anyone switching to histo from another specialty and applying for pay protection?

I’m switching from psychiatry but not sure if this pay protection applies for me! , do you have more info about it ?

So according to our contract, if we’re moving to a hard to fill specialty we get to keep our base pay.

“Pay protection on changing training path
48. Where a doctor chooses to switch directly from one training programme (other than a Foundation programme) into an agreed hard-to-fill training programme (identified in Annex A as being one where a flexible pay premium applies for this purpose) and the doctor’s basic pay (as defined in paragraphs 1 to 3 above) in the new appointment is lower than that paid in the immediately previous appointment on the previous training programme, the doctor may be eligible for pay protection. To be eligible for protection, the doctor must take up the first appointment on the new training programme no later than 12 months after leaving the original training programme, and such period of time could as a reasonable adjustment be extended in the event that a doctor is disabled (for the purposes of the Equality Act 2010), and/or could be extended to account for sickness absence or parental leave.”


We need to get a positive outcome in ARCP, like and outcome 1, 2, (or 6 or 7).
Worth messaging lead employer if this applies to you!

Thanks for detailed reply, unfortunately i’m switching from a service non training job.
I think you mentioned before that you are starting in liverpool? Is that so ? As I’m starting there too 🤝

Hi there, did you get a response from your lead employer about this? I'm switching specialties but emailed HEE and they said Histopath doesn't count as a hard-to-fill specialty...

Hey just wondering if anybody has received anything from St Helen's and Knowsley Lead Employer after their employment checks?

Yes I’ve received a copy of my contract!
