Download a reflective account template - suggestion only, please adapt to fit your need
You can also ask your tutor/assessor if they have proforma sheets to use.



The type of information a RA collects involves ..

• what went well
• what could of gone better
• what could of been done differently
• the candidate's role
• what the candidate learnt
• what can be done to improve performance and practice

Best wishes

I have just been asked to do some reflective accounts and my tutor has said that only what I have done is of importance. They do not want reams of detail about what 'joe bloggs' did and said. We were told to keep them short and concise and use the UARS to make sure that you have include all the info that is needed.

Hope this is of some help.

its very simple

a good clear account of what YOU did

why you did it
how you did it


what was good about
what went wrong
and why
and how would you improve it next time.
never say you wouldnt, no ones that good.
