10.1Teaching and supervisingsource
Requirement, our statement of the clause

In teaching and supervising roles, good practice means the practitioner: (a) builds the skills, attitudes and habits of an effective and culturally safe teacher or supervisor; (b) as supervisor, recognises that supervisory responsibility cannot be transferred; (c) makes sure anyone completing supervised practice gets effective oversight and feedback; and (d) avoids conflicts of interest in teaching or supervision that may impair objectivity or harm the learner's outcomes or experience, for example by not supervising someone with whom they have a prior non-professional relationship.

Evidence that typically shows this
  • Supervision agreements and plans for supervisees
  • Supervision session and feedback records
  • Supervisor training records
  • Declaration of no pre-existing personal relationship with the supervisee
Common gap to check
  • Supervision in name only, with no documented sessions
  • Supervisor who is a relative or business partner of the supervisee
