Priya Tah from the Rees Centre discusses a study that focuses on the experiences of Black and Asian kinship carers. Priya explains the challenges that racially minoritised kinship carers face and the implications of the study for policy and practice. More than one in five of the 120,000 kinship children in England live with minority ethnic kinship carers. However, little is known about their experiences. In this episode, Priya Tah speaks with Laura Molway about a study commissioned by Kinship and funded by the KPMG Foundation to better understand the experiences, needs, and challenges of Black and Asian kinship carers in England. Evidence suggests that while Black and Asian kinship carers face similar barriers to other kinship families such as a lack of financial support, they also deal with specific challenges, including cultural stigma, systemic racism and limited access to support and tailored services. Priya identifies several areas where improvements in kinship care support could be made, including in awareness, statutory rights, housing, support for special educational needs and disabilities, and the cultural competence of services.

What do clinician-educators really think about assessment?
Dr Nici Simms discusses her research exploring the different ways clinician-educators experience and understand assessment. Assessment in the field of health professions, such as medicine, is of critical importance because it has implications for the public; for example, certification of health professionals as equipped for patient care. However, within health professions, little attention is paid towards the many health professionals who are involved in assessment – most of which are unlikely to have formal educational qualifications. In this episode, Dr Nici Simms discusses findings from interviews with clinician-educators responsible for assessment in undergraduate medical programmes and identifies four key levels at which they engage with and make sense of assessment in their work.
