PLACEMENT ASSESSMENT
The practice-based days will be assessed by:
REFLECTIVE TASK: This will be marked by the practice-based GP tutors. See details below.
END OF PLACEMENT ONLINE FORM: ATTENDANCE & PROFESSIONALISM ASSESSMENT GP Tutors must complete an online form for each student [see Appendix 6]. GP Tutors are asked to give students formative feedback on their progress and professionalism during the placement, so that students have opportunities to modify their behaviour before they are formally assessed at the end of the year.
The central days will be assessed by:
ATTENDANCE, ENAGAEMENTS & PARTICIPATION: There will be NO formally submitted task or grade. GP Facilitators will confirm attendance and active participation in online activities on all 3 central days.
Important: Students need to have completed and passed the 3 assessment components to be eligible to sit the end of year exams. If a student has not completed the placement and remediation cannot be completed in time the student will forfeit the first sit of the Year 2 exams and will sit in August as a second sit.
ATTENDANCE
STUDENTS: Attendance is expected and recorded at each placement day. You should consider a placement day to be a work day and attendance is required every day. If you are unable to attend, you must inform your tutor in advance and report your absence to the school via the GP2 QM+ area. Repeated and or unexplained absences will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Students cannot sit the end of year exams until they have satisfactorily completed their GP2 placement.
TUTORS/FACILITATORS: Please complete a register for each GP2 placement day. Poor attendance is often an early warning for students who are experiencing academic difficulties.
Please inform as soon as possible QMUL CBME staff (via f.langridge@qmul.ac.uk ) :
At the time of any non-attendance (whether the student informed you or it was unexplained).
If you have any concerns about a student’s attendance, behaviour, health etc.
Module leads are keen to discuss issues as early as possible
