How is the data used to improve the quality of training?
Indicator outliers are shown as triangles on the right hand side of the indicator charts. An outlier is defined as being below the national mean and in the lower quartile, shown as a red triangle or above the mean and in the upper quartile range, shown as green. This is reversed for the two bullying indicators. These outliers are areas that deaneries may target for further investigation locally; in which case the work will be documented in the deanery’s annual report, which deaneries are required to submit to the GMC (and were required to submit to PMETB up to 31 March 2010). Please see paragraph 62 of the GMC’s Quality Framework.
