Dear University of Manchester,

I would like to know why, after Manchester Medical School, was informed of the unprofessional behaviour of a fifth year medical student, by a concerned member of the public- this was not acted upon?

The GMC guidance clearly states the required professional standards of a student studying at your institution:

According to the guidance by the GMC, students should maintain professional behavior outside the university too.

This incident was reported in the summer of 2016, concerning a medical student, who intimidated a member of public to drive the car they owned. This medical student had no driving license at the time and no insurance. This by UK law is a criminal offence and carries a LC10 code.

The driving behaviour of the individual could be regarded at the time as dangerous driving. The member of the public had CCTV evidence of what had happened, from a petrol pump station.

No action was taken by the medical school, to even clarify, with the student in question, what had happened.

Yours faithfully,

Michelle Nicolette
