The Educational Supervisor's Summary Report (ESSR) is generated by the resident and needs to be submitted by the ES to the College Tutors > 2 weeks prior to the ARCP date. This means the ES needs to have reviewed it prior to this deadline, so consider this when prompting the resident to send it to you!

​​

Residents need to nominate a College Tutor in their Lifelong Learning Portfolio. ESSRs will then be handled by this College Tutor.

​

Please encourage residents with surnames beginning A-M to nominate Tim Howes, and those beginning N-Z to nominate Kate O'Connor.

Guide to writing the ESSR

The ESSR is a summary of activity and achievements since the last ARCP. The onus is on the resident to complete it and they should be encouraged to do the majority - your role is to comment on the evidence they have provided.

 

Feedback from recent panels has raised the following requests:

• Please provide an accessible logbook summary

• Focused, distilled summaries of activity are preferred over lengthy generic prose

• Strategic analysis for the next year:

  • HALOs needed & planning for this

  • Stage of training requirements still to be achieved

  • Remedial areas you have identifed

  • Future planning (SIA ambitions)

  • SuppoRTT

​

​

Elements to be included by the learner

• Summary of activity since last ARCP: year of training, hospital placement, exam achievements

• HALOs achieved: current and completed since your last ARCP, what remains outstanding for this stage of training.

• Logbook: the Educational Supervisor needs to comment on this year’s/career logbook numbers in the written text specifically as the panel do not have time to search for these individually. They should include both career totals (by specialty) and year-to-date
