If you’re trying to remove a clinician from your contract, the clinician you’re removing is a trainer who has a Foundation Dentist (FD) allocated to them on the contract whose tenure extends beyond the end date you’re trying to input.
You cannot submit the contract authorisation until the end dates for all FD trainers attached to the contract are entered with either the exact date of the FD's tenure end date or later.
Provider Users and Practice Owners
If you have an FD trainer who’s leaving a contract before their FDs tenure ends, the FD tenure and FD trainer's details must be amended first.
In England, NHS Dental Services are responsible for making these amendments on instruction from NHS England Workforce, Training and Education (WT&E). You must tell your local WT&E office of any changes to an FDs training placement who’ll arrange this with NHS Dental Services.
For Wales, you must contact your Local Health Board.
