The Medical Schools Council (MSC) is an organisation that represents the interests and ambitions of the 33 medical schools in the United Kingdom. The membership is made up of the heads, or deans of the schools. It was formerly known as the Council of Heads of Medical Schools (CHMS). ==Widening participation== In the late nineties, the CHMS looked at admission data and concluded that men and people from ethnic minorities were suffering from discrimination when they applied to medical schools. In 2008, after the Tooke inquiry into Modernising Medical Careers, the council were again asked to look at selection of medical school applicants. In July 2013 the "Selecting for Excellence" project began, which the MSC had commissioned to widen participation in medicine. The report found that in the preceding three-year period, just under half of the schools and colleges in the UK did not provide any applicants to study medicine at British universities. In conjunction with National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT), they planned to organise for volunteers from the medical profession to visit pupils at the country's 18,000 primary schools during October 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Medical Schools Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
