No / This study explores GP tutor views of a nationally derived list of quality criteria for undergraduate and postgraduate practice-based teaching. Whilst these published criteria provided a means of benchmarking locally, an evaluation of utility in practice required further exploration. This educational evaluation was conducted within a West Yorkshire locality as a means of supporting their practice-based primary care education. A survey approach using an online Likert scaled questionnaire was distributed to all GP tutors with an additional opportunity for free text qualitative comments. Data were analysed using an online reporting package for survey results (MarketSight) and thematic analysis of qualitative data. Key findings were that in general all the criteria were rated having a high level of importance with 83% of GPs claiming they would find such a list important in directing their learning and teaching approach. The opinions on out-of-hours experiences for medical students were also interesting as they differed greatly. These findings will be of interest to those involved in the organisation and delivery of medical education within primary care as the list of criteria could act as a structural guide for directing medical student teaching, learning and its quality assurance. Implications for further research include the utility of core criteria and the exploration of out-of-hours experience for medical student education.
