Reflective practice is a simple, time-efficient and evidence-based way to enhance your professional performance and improve your wellbeing.
We maximise what we learn from an experience when we step back and actively reflect on it. This is because the act of purposeful reflection helps us develop the skill of metacognition (thinking about thinking), improves our ability to self-assess, and promotes resilience and innovative thinking.
To support lawyers with their reflective practice, we have developed a Reflective Practice Template.
This template is designed for supervisors to complete in consultation with their supervisee.
The framework helps supervisees to understand the capabilities they need to develop to support independent legal practice, and supervisors to think about suitable work and development opportunities.
