2. Operative Techniques - adult and paediatric (75% of unit total)
An Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) of operative procedures, 1.5 hours

Formative assessment
Students are supported in their learning by a variety of directed formative assessments in the Clinical Skills Laboratory with which they must engage within this unit. Overall performance will be reviewed and discussed at the School Progress committee at regular meetings x 1 per term.
1. Continuous Clinical Assessment of Advanced Periodontal Instrumentation techniques
Clinical assessment and student reflection for each patient seen, graded with feedback from staff and patients by completion of CAFS e-portfolio
