February speak to every GP that teaches the undergraduate students  How do they feel their teaching has gone this current academic year?  Did they enjoy teaching?  Are they happy to teach again next academic year?  Will they like to make any changes to their teaching i.e. teach another module, change their current timetable format? How do I organise the undergraduate teaching within my practices?

3.  Are they happy with the undergraduate teaching?  How did we cope with the loss of appointments?  How can we reduce the impact of teaching on the appointment system?  Clashes in teaching, how can we avoid them? Speak to the Practice Managers/ Reception Manager

9. Example – Community Care, Fifth Year KEY to plan ahead. Drafting the timetable, whilst using the guidance of the Course Documentation. As soon as the GPTs appointments go on the practice computer system I start altering them before patients get booked in. Organising a Teaching Timetable

10.  Block out ‘protected teaching time’ e.g. introduction, tutorials, letter writing exercise, case based discussion, assessment  Week 1 – timetable for student to meet all members of the PHCT e.g. receptionists, secretary, administrators, managers  Have the student observe consultations with as many clinicians as possible during week 1 to experience different consultation styles  Place on the timetable the EXTERNAL VISITS Hospice Visit Liaise with the student regarding the Walk-in Clinic and OOH Book these sessions Community Care (Fifth Year) Six Week Timetable

11. Baby Clinic Antenatal Clinic Drug Clinic Antico Clinic Minor Surgery MSK Clinic CAB session Place these onto the timetable What else does the practice have to offer the students?

12.  Home visits with the Community Matron, HF Nurses, District Nurses  Visit to a local pharmacy  Funeral directors Arrange, confirm and place on the timetable What does the community have to offer the students?

13.  Decide which days will be best for the GPT to have ‘supervised surgeries’. The days that they are not free is there another GPT who is happy to assist. (Try to keep to the same two GPTs)  Allocate the student’s consulting room as close as possible to the GPT  In advance place x4 debrief slots on the appointment system to allow the GPT to debrief the student’s patient and have time to teach  On the day the GPT is to select the patients form their own appointment list to be seen by the student Supervised Surgeries
