Abstract
Dissatisfaction with clinical placement is rated the most frequent reason for leaving radiotherapy programmes and healthcare programmes generally. As reported in the “Mind the Gap” project different generations of students and staff have different expectations and needs. Furthermore, evidence has shown when students feel part of the team, they learn more effectively and have a positive experience. A collaboration between UWE and CUoL, supported by the Office for Students Strategic Interventions in Health Education Disciplines Challenge Fund, investigated how enhancing clinical supervisors awareness of students needs through training, could provide an innovative approach to reduce attrition.
