, Foreword




In 1984 the Institute of Medical Ethics (IME) convened a working party to consider the teaching
of medical ethics in UK medical schools. The working party reviewed current practice in teaching,
discussed alternative teaching options, academic standards and made recommendations. The
‘Pond Report’, named after its Chair, Sir Desmond Pond was the outcome of the work of the
working party.* In the 1993 version of Tomorrow’s Doctors, the General Medical Council (GMC)
outlined its requirement that all medical schools should include teaching of medical ethics and
law as part of the core curriculum.

In 1998, the IME published its 1998 Consensus Statement detailing the key broad content areas
that should be included.† After setting up an Education Steering Group in 2006, and consulting
widely through annual conferences with students and teachers of medical ethics and law and
with other stakeholders, the IME revised the consensus based on core learning outcomes in
medical ethics and law.‡ The Education Steering Group convened an Assessment Working Group
to look at how best to support teachers in assessing students’ learning in medical ethics and
law. This report is the outcome of the work of the group and aims to act as a starting point for
teachers. We hope that this support will continuously be built upon by the IME community and
up-dated its website: http://www.instituteofmedicalethics.org
