Wednesday Tutorials
Purpose: Wednesday tutorials are for all trainees in GP posts (both ST1s and ST2s in their first GP post, and ST3s). The focus of these sessions is knowledge, application in practice and helping you to cover a broad range of the RCGP curriculum. Many will help you with AKT and SCA preparation; others are aimed at practical everyday things, or more difficult to get to areas. They are delivered by Trainees supported by their Trainers. So, you will need to pick a date and a topic title and then liaise with your trainer on how to structure and deliver the session. This will help you develop your teaching skills too. Remember to think about how best you can make your session interactive. Don’t forget to reflect on the feedback from the session and log the event in your portfolio under ‘Maintaining performance, learning and teaching – maintaining performance and effective CPD for oneself and others’

Feedback and Evaluation
