Description

Welcome to Teaching Things!

We're excited to bring you this high-yield teaching series, designed to help you ace both your written and practical exams.

Join us for an interactive online teaching session focused on paediatric presentations of orthopaedic pathologies for clinical medical students. This session will cover common paediatric orthopaedic conditions, key clinical findings, red-flag presentations not to miss, and practical tips for approaching orthopaedic cases on placement and in exams. Ideal for building confidence in both history taking and examination, this teaching will bridge the gap between textbook knowledge and real-world clinical practice.

Don’t forget to fill out the feedback form after the tutorial—we value your input! And remember, you can access recordings of all past tutorials on our page.
