Welcome to University College London (UCL) School of Pharmacy and Joint London Foundation School.
Each practitioner is expected to complete an e-portfolio to provide evidence to demonstrate their ongoing progress towards, and subsequent achievement of, each of the competencies required to complete FS1.
Your portfolio will be reviewed at regular intervals so that satisfactory performance will allow you to progress to the next stage of the programme. This formal process will allow Educational Supervisors to gain an overview of your performance against the defined standards of care, as described by the Foundation Pharmacy Framework (FPF), which forms an integral part of the portfolio.
The formal review process used is based on a model where the practitioner has one Educational Supervisor for the entire programme, while a number of Practice Supervisors (usually rotational supervisors) provide supervision during specific rotations or placements.
Your tutors at the School are here to mentor and to support you, so if you have any problems or queries do come and talk to one of us. We wish you good luck with your studies and look forward to getting to know you over the coming years.
