Three areas exist in the East of England: Cambridge; Norfolk and Norwich; and East of England Education.

Norfolk and Norwich: F1 and F2 years in East Anglia exclusively at Norfolk and Norwich Universities Hospitals.
East of England Education: F1 and F2 in same deanery but either East Anglia or EBH. F2 year includes education component.
