3. Training vs Service Demand Key Findings:- Your 2011 local ranking in Wales:- The score considers your perception of how well supported you are in your training role. Out of all UK Deaneries Wales ranked lowest with:- –49.11% of respondents reporting that departmental service demands meant that trainees were regularly, unable to take advantage of formal teaching sessions. –57.97% of respondents reporting that service demands restricted trainee access to the clinical learning opportunities that were available.

4. Time Key Findings:- Your 2011 local ranking in Wales:- This score looks at the extent to which you are spending un-contracted time on educational activity. Therefore a high ranking is considered to be an adverse result. The results show that there is a reliance on your goodwill to train with Wales ranking 7 th out of all UK Deaneries. We are starting to address this through the Educational Supervision Tripartite Agreement which will be rolled out across Wales as part of the Supervising the Route to Excellence Programme later this year.

8. This isnt news to me what has changed since last year? The Deanery has recently appointed Local Faculty Leads in Health Boards across Wales whose role is to specifically support trainers. The Educational Supervision Tripartite Agreement will be rolled out across Wales following a successful pilot at selected sites last year. Amongst other things the Agreement makes a recommendation on the amount of SPA time that should be provided for Educational Supervision and we are also developing mechanisms to monitor the implementation of this. The Deanery has revised the format of the All Wales Trainer Fora to provide a greater focus on cpd opportunities. In addition, the number of events across Wales has increased to ensure that more of you have opportunities to attend.
