In Tameside, 15 of these are used to facilitate your regular structured teaching programme, which is protected teaching time. This can be used to further your clinical and professional development.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a finite study budget so, generally, study leave will only be considered for educational activities that prepare you for the requirements of MRCGP or becoming a GP, but not for extra-curricular interests or private study. All study leave must be approved in advance by both your Placement Supervisor (Consultant or GP) <strong>and<\/strong> Training Programme Director in order for it to be granted and for you to successfully reclaim fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignleft\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Study Leave may be granted for:<\/td><td><em>AKT preparation courses (usually one per trainee)<br>RCA preparation courses (usually one per trainee)<br>Experience days (such as shadowing in the ENT or eye clinic, or safeguarding meetings)<\/em><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Study Leave will <strong>not <\/strong>be granted for:<\/td><td><em>Private Study Days<br>Specialist courses like Neuro-linguistic programming, homeopathy, ALS\/ATLS or Acupuncture<br>Post-GP training courses such as Minor Surgery, DRCOG\/ other Diplomas<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The process for applying for study leave, as well as the application and reimbursement forms, can be found below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/gp-training.hee.nhs.uk\/tameside-glossop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/08\/Study-Leave-Process_3-1_0_0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Study Leave Process<\/a> (Important please read)<br><a href=\"http:\/\/gp-training.hee.nhs.uk\/tameside-glossop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/08\/Study-leave-application-form.xls\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Study Leave Application Form<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/gp-training.hee.nhs.uk\/tameside-glossop\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/08\/GP-ST-EXPENSES-EDUC-CLAIM-FORM_1.doc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Study Leave Reimbursement Form<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further information regarding study leave can also be found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nwpgmd.nhs.uk\/gpst-study-leave\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HEE Website<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-panel1 nhsuk-panel is-style-panel-with-label\"><h3>Claiming Travel Costs<\/h3><div class=\"paneltext\">\n<p>You are entitled to claim back travel costs incurred as a result of work-related travel that is beyond the route from your home to your usual place of work. In hospital posts, there is usually nothing you can claim back because most of your work will be at the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Doctors working in a GP practice who are required to use their own vehicle with the expectation that home visits may be undertaken shall be reimbursed for the cost of mileage from home to principal place of work. You can also claim for travel incurred to home visits and teaching day-release, if the latter requires driving to a place that is not your usual place of work (GP Practice). To claim, you will need to keep a travel log with notes on mileage and must also have business insurance on your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out more, including how to sign up to make a mileage claim, please refer to the guidance on the <a href=\"https:\/\/sharedservices.sthk.nhs.uk\/lead-employer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lead employer<\/a> website.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-panel1 nhsuk-panel is-style-panel-with-label\"><h3>Claiming Tax Back<\/h3><div class=\"paneltext\">\n<p>Did you know that you can also claim the tax back for many work-related expenses incurred as a result of training from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/tax-relief-for-employees\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HMRC<\/a>? Examples include; exam fees (AKT, CSA and RCA), professional memberships (RCGP, BMA and GMC), certain equipment (stethoscopes) and uniform allowance. Although there is plenty of information on the HMRC website, you may wish to speak to them directly or find an accountant if you have any questions about what you can claim back.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Please take out cover with some of these organisations to protect you&#8230;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-reveal1 nhsuk-details\"><summary class=\"nhsuk-details__summary\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"nhsuk-details__summary-text\"><strong>The BMA<\/strong><\/span><\/summary><div class=\"nhsuk-details__text\" id=\"details-content-\" aria-hidden=\"false\"><p>Employment issues (contracts, holidays, maternity pay etc) \u2013 can be a minefield so worth having proper representation.
