Abstract

The Nursing and Midwifery Council's Standards for Student Supervision and Assessment (SSSA), introduced in 2018, shifted from a mentorship model to a coaching model, creating new roles for practice supervisors, assessors, and academic assessors. This study explores the experiences of nursing students, practice assessors, and supervisors working with the SSSA. Using a qualitative approach, 14 semi-structured interviews were conducted with nursing students and staff. Thematic analysis identified three key themes: SSSA-related training, organisational support, and expectations from students and staff. Findings suggest time constraints, inconsistent training, and use of the electronic practice assessment documentation (e-PAD) platform require attention to improve the learning experience.
