Aims A 2020 survey of undergraduate ENT education found there was wide variability between Medical Schools despite a standardised curriculum, published by ENT UK. To improve this, a group of CTFs designed and led teaching sessions covering each aspect of ENT based on the ENT UK curriculum. The aim was to improve confidence in and knowledge of ENT conditions expected at junior doctor level. Methods Final year students participated in three 1-2 hour teaching sessions focused on ‘Otology’, ‘Rhinology’ and ‘Head &amp; Neck’. Each session started with an MCQ assessing prior knowledge, with a post-teaching MCQ to assess for improvement. There was an additional questionnaire to measure confidence in several domains pre- and post-teaching, and of the undergraduate teaching they had received within their medical schools. Results Overall, students’ pre-ENT teaching and post-ENT teaching MCQ scores improved from 67% to 87%. The percentage of students who felt ‘fairly confident’ and/or ‘completely confident’ in the following domains were compared pre- and post-teaching respectively: recognising ENT conditions (26% vs 42%); managing &amp; treating ENT conditions (5% vs 42%); and recognising surgical airways (3% to 40%). 47% of students found tutorials based on ENT ‘very useful’ for their learning, compared to 16% for outpatient clinics &amp; lectures. 94% of students had received ENT teaching for a period of &amp;lt; 2 weeks, with 37% of those receiving &amp;lt;1 week. Conclusions This project demonstrates how a small series of curriculum specific ENT teaching can help final year students to supplement their knowledge and confidence in ENT.
