In response we have produced sets of four CSVs presenting GP joiner and leaver full-time equivalent (FTE) and headcounts at region and ICB-level, covering nine annual periods - March to March, June to June, September to September and December to December - from March 2019 - March 2020 to September 2021 - September 2022.
For each set of four CSVs, the two labelled 'a' present figures for the Qualified Permanent GP workforce (so excluding GPs in training and locums), while the two labelled 'b' represent the Qualified GP workforce (so including locums and excluding only GPs in training).
One pair of files (1a and 1b) reflect joiners and leavers to/from the general practice workforce, broken down by region and ICB. The other pair (2a and 2b) also include movers between regions and ICBs. Please see the guidance PDF file which accompanies the CSVs for a detailed explanation of the differences between the files and how to use them. Users are urged to read this guidance to avoid any misinterpretation of the figures.
