Recommendation
DHSC and NHS England must ensure that, by June 2033, there are 37 doctors in training
posts as paediatric and perinatal pathologists, in line with the workforce requirement set
out by the Royal College of Pathologists in the November 2025 Paediatric and Perinatal
Pathology Workforce Report. The incentive scheme should remain in place and funded
until at least 37 doctors are in training posts as paediatric and perinatal pathologists.
