| Abstrakt: | This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. The General Medical Council (GMC) commissioned The RTK Ltd to conduct a research project to inform a revision of the Gateways to the Professions guidance (The Guidance). The Guidance supports medical education providers to ensure that disabled students and doctors in training (disabled learners) do not face unnecessary barriers to successful medical careers. The researchers consulted with medical schools, HEE Local Teams, deaneries and employers on their use of the current guidance and good practice. They also interviewed medical students to better understand their experiences of admissions procedures and the support they were able to access during their period of study. It was evident that the provision for disabled learners is varied; the research found no single established model of support. However, the interviews revealed some key principles of good practice and innovative suggestions for future provision. Medical education providers perceived a need for a revised version of The Guidance to reflect good practice and provide more specific advice to them as well as to leaners.
