Abstract
In the United Kingdom, the Education Committee of the General Medical Council has a statutory responsibility to promote high standards in medical education and does so by producing recommendations for undergraduate medical training. The last set were published in 1993, and five of the 13 principal recommendations were aimed at improving social responsiveness of medical schools. The Education Committee has been measuring responsiveness of the medical schools by means of written inquiries and visits. Twenty-three visits have been made, and the Education Committee is, with minor exceptions, well satisfied with the schools' progress. The social responsiveness of the School of Medicine at the University of Southampton is discussed.
