ESR – what is it?

ESR – what is it?A meeting with your ES, approx 1-2 hours.

Requires some pre-meeting prep from you too.Qualitative picture of your performance in

training.

A review of the evidence collected in your e-Portfolio every six months by the educational supervisor (ES)DecemberMay

ESR-why is it done?Provides feedback on:

Overall progress,Identifies areas for more focused training.

You’ll then agree a learning plan, and the outcome of the review will be recorded in your e-Portfolio.

Educational supervisor decides whether your progress is:Satisfactory, Unsatisfactory, or need to be referred to the ARCP panel.

Final review competent for licensing

Practical pointsAsking your ES to create a ‘Review Period’,

allows you to complete your ESR self rating.

Demonstrate areas of strength and developmental needs, your trainers will adapt the learning programme to facilitate collection of new evidence.

What are the components?1. Rating the competencies.

2. Rating curriculum coverage.

3. Rating Clinical skills (DOPs Log) and PDP.

4. ES assessment and setting goals.

EvidenceProving that you are competent to be a GP or

progress in your training:

Examples: CBD, COT’s, PSQ, MSF, Learning logs, PDP and

Rating yourself• You and your educational supervisor will rate

your progress on each of the 12 competences. Each competence is rated as one of:• Needs further development (NFD) – below

expectations• NFD – meets expectations• NFD – above expectations• competent for licensing • excellent. 

Progression

Slow and steady progression over the three years:

I.S or N.F.D Competent for licensing Excellent

[Below Meets Above]

Evidence• Use the e-portfolio to:

• Record and validate informal or ‘naturally occurring’ evidence against the competence framework.

• For example:• you might perform an audit on a specific topic and present it

at a practice meeting. This could provide evidence of several competences, including maintaining performance, learning and teaching and communication skills.

• Your educational supervisor, trainer or clinical supervisor will validate naturally occurring evidence [log entries] to the appropriate competences.
