The Foundation School Director will be expected to meet the challenges of leading the School and Education Providers to deliver the changing curricular in an evolving service landscape.
To support the Postgraduate Dean, the Foundation School Director will work across the spectrum of health and where relevant, social care, within the context of a team, so that the provision of education reflects changing service models.
