F1 doctors, despite being expected to teach, have had reduced opportunity to do so during COVID-19. Medical students have also become increasingly concerned for upcoming exams due to time away from placements. A national orthopaedic teaching programme was designed to provide F1 doctors with opportunities to develop their teaching skills and synergistically improve students’ confidence in performing clinical orthopaedic examinations. Method A University Trauma &amp; Orthopaedics society coordinated the teaching programme consisting of 6-weekly online sessions on each joint examination (shoulder, hip, knee, hand, ankle and lumbar spine). Each session was delivered by two F1 tutors. Pre- and post-session MCQs were provided to students to assess improvement in knowledge. Anonymous feedback forms were also disseminated. Results From the 341 students that attended, 87.1% provided feedback. 86.2% felt that they had de-skilled due to time off, with a mean 15 weeks off from placement. Based on a 5-point Likert scale, students displayed a mean improvement in confidence (1.9±1.1, p &amp;lt; 0.001) and MCQ scores (1.4±1.3, p &amp;lt; 0.001) before and after the sessions. 91.6% of students agreed that the use of online teaching increased attendance. Of the 10 tutors, all reported improvement in confidence to teach and teaching skills. Conclusions We demonstrate that online delivery of clinical orthopaedic examinations is effective and present our findings to encourage similar teaching programmes to be adopted at other locations and specialities.
