Three placement meetings will take place, the first typically within three months of the placement start date, the second before the end of March, and the third before the end of June.
The purpose of the meeting is for the student and their Placement Tutor to meet and discuss the progress of the placement and the requirements of the DPS/DIS. In the second meeting, the Placement Tutor will also meet the student’s line manager to discuss their progress and to address any queries you may have.
The first meeting is between the student and Placement Tutor only. For the second meeting, there will be a meeting between the Visiting Tutor and the student’s line manager; and a meeting of all three parties. The third meeting is a progress meeting between the student and Placement Tutor.
It is the student’s responsibility to arrange the meeting to suit all parties involved. The Placement Tutor will have a checklist to work through to ensure that they have gained all the information they need from the meeting.
Should it be required, further contact or even a further meeting, can be arranged on a need’s basis.
