Practice learning

In the event that you fail to demonstrate consistent proficiency in the learning outcomes in practice you will be required to agree an action plan with your practice assessor and academic assessor, which must be achieved during the summer Leave weeks, prior to progressing into the next Stage. You must go on to successfully complete this practice learning placement. Failure to do so may result in a recommendation for discontinuation from the programme.

There are two elements to your practice learning assessment, successful achievement of the relevant proficiencies and completion of the safe medicate assessment. You are required to pass both elements to pass the practice learning assessment. If either of these two elements are not completed/submitted by the assessment deadline, and you do not have exceptional circumstances to explain why these are being completed/submitted late, the assessment will be graded as a fail.
