Gender pay gap in the NHS
The continued dominance of men in senior medical positions is one of the main causes of a gender pay gap in medicine, as revealed by the largest examination of gender pay data ever conducted in the public sector.
The research is being undertaken by Professor Carol Woodhams, an expert in gender pay in Surrey Business School, as part of the Gender Pay Gap in Medicine Review commissioned by the Department of Health and Social Care.
Male doctors are earning £1.17 for every £1 earned by female doctors in the NHS, and new data reveals that women are still not represented in equal proportions in senior medical grades, with nearly 32,000 male consultants to just 18,000 female. The full review is expected to address the underlying causes of these disparities, such as the impact of motherhood and women’s career progression while working irregular hours or part-time.
Inspiring young minds
The University’s commitment to engage and inspire young people has been recognised by two national awards for our work with Kings College in Guildford.
The National Education Opportunities Network, a professional organisation for access to higher education in England, selected
us as winners of the Widening Access Partnership Award and the School or College Widening Access Award.
As part of Surrey’s 50th anniversary celebrations to give something back to the local community, we partnered with Kings College to encourage pupils to think about future educational pathways and to raise their aspirations. The College has since received a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating after an inadequate rating in December 2016.
