Safe learning environment charter – supervision

Learners are supported by positive role models and appropriate levels of supervision. Continuity of supervision builds on individual learning needs and develops confidence and proficiency.

Together, education and placement providers should:

Collaborate effectively to maximise the experience of the learner.

Offer pastoral support and peer support networks for supervisors and assessors.

Practice supervisors/assessors should:

Communicate in transparent ways to optimise learner progression.

Recognise that progression alters supervision requirements.

Maintain current practice and awareness of regulatory standards.

Education providers should:

Help supervisors understand what theory is taught and when so they can support learners appropriately.

Placement providers should:

Consider equitable rostering to maximise learner opportunities and facilitate access to leaning opportunities.

Support supervisor wellbeing.

Learners should:

Set personal objectives and communicate them with their supervisor.

Seek out varied learning opportunities in placement areas.

Check-in regularly with dedicated support staff.
