context_page_description: Keele Medical School is a medical school based on campus at Keele University near Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, England. The first two years of the school's MBChB course are taught mainly on Keele University campus although early exposure to patients is of importance and in the second year there is considerable interaction in a clinical setting.
  Years three to five, however, are principally taught within the Royal Stoke University Hospital in Stoke-on-Trent and the County Hospital, at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust, North Staffordshire Combined Healthcare NHS Trust and South Staffordshire and Shropshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. Medical students also have placements in general practices in Staffordshire and Shropshire.
  The school originally accepted about 120 UK/EU and 10 non-EU medical students each year for the 5-year MBChB course and 10 UK/EU/non-EU students for the 6-year course. From 2011 the total accepted increased to about 150 from all sources. This number may vary depending on NHS requirements and funding.
  Within the United Kingdom the medical school is ranked third by The Guardian and The Sunday Times.
