Preferred zones - pilot • To guarantee equity in the allocation of a zone where placements for each student will take place for the duration of their course: • students are asked to complete a student profile form that includes: • choices in order or preference for geographical zones • *personal information to facilitate allocation * Information supplied will be used by SHU in accordance with the Data Protection Act

  7. Does this mean I will be rotated to all three areas of my zone every year? • Your zone is where your placements can occur, but the actual allocation will be dependent on: • suitability of learning experience • available placements • a random number assigned to each student in each placement block that will determine the order you will be placed - equity • your personal profile items • your zone

  8. Other student profile information: • On-line student profile – encourages student responsibility: • Caring needs • Transportation • GP • Not appropriate placements (family or friends in wards) • Any other • Preferential Geographical zone

  9. Other on-line information • Your placements – you will be able to see in which ward/placement you have been allocated • On-line attendance form: to be filled at the end of each placement (deadline is one week after the end of the placement), signed by tutor and handed in to the Placement Team – attendance deadlines will be posted on First Class/Blackboard • FAQs – on Blackboard and on web-link (available shortly)
