Educational aims and objectives
A new two-day lecture programme from the convenors of our popular ‘Paediatric orthopaedic FRCS (Orth) part 2 revision courses’. Produced in response to candidate demand, this lecture programme will complement our part 2 revision courses.

Key learning points not “in the books” include:
• Tips to make core knowledge easy to recall under exam conditions• Special attention to topics candidates frequently get confused about• Where to direct your revision if your paediatric experience is limited• What you need to know to improve your score from 6 to 7 or 8• Plenty of opportunity to ask questions and clarify your thinking• Fundamental concepts all illustrated with real cases, not just theory
