Part Time Trainers

Full time GP Trainees have 7 practice based sessions, which include 4 hours of teaching. The part time trainer must provide or arrange appropriate clinical supervision at all times.

The Part Time GP Trainer is expected to:

1. Have significant direct supervision of the Trainee across their whole training attachment. The usual requirement is to be present for at least 50% of the trainee’s normal working week.

2. Remain legally responsible for the training and documentation required by the Deanery/RCGP/GMC regulations.

3. Be aware of and acquaint themselves with all aspects of the trainee’s training and work

4. Provide the majority of the teaching sessions / tutorials across the whole attachment.

5. Nominate an appropriately qualified Clinical Supervisor within the practice in their absence to supervise the GP trainee

6. Have documented sufficient clinical and educational experience of the Trainee to be able to justify any decisions or judgments on the trainee’s suitability to attain CCT/CEGPR.

7. Be aware of the requirement to provide sufficient documented evidence in the case of a claim against inadequate training if the Deanery is subject to an appeal in the case of any unsatisfactory progression.

8. Attend all normal GP Trainer activities.

The Deanery reserves the right to change the Training status or approval on the recommendation of the Patch Associate Dean or other senior educationalist, without notice and subject to approval by the GP-STC.
