Professional Learning Record • Stored electronically on Pebblepad (hard copy in green section of Handbook) • Covers the whole school-based training period • Summary of progress towards meeting the Teachers’ Standards • Involves student teacher, mentor, link tutor and HEI tutor • Opportunity for student teacher to be aware of their progress towards meeting the Teachers’ Standards

  4. School based assessment points • Foundation phase Assessment of trainee’s personal & professional conduct Confirmation of trainee demonstrating appropriate standards • If you see a message like this the student hasn’t activated the form by completing their section (absences at the bottom of the form)

  5. School based assessment points • Development phase – DSE Profile Evidence • Interim: end of week 3/early week 4 • End: during the final two weeks of DSE • Student teacher completes self assessment using UCET’s descriptors (p.97-104 in handbook). They suggest how well they are meeting the standards (minimum, good or high level) and provide a rationale for this assessment • Mentor completes next section with assessment and rationale • Mentor and student teacher meet to discuss progress and grades are agreed • Targets for the next phase of school experience are identified • Strengths and distinctiveness are identified • Summary recorded on DSE Profile Document • As part of Brunel’s quality assurance mechanism link tutors will be involved in moderating assessments

  6. Unsatisfactory progress • If you are concerned that your student teacher is not making satisfactory progress towards meeting any of the Teachers’ Standards you must alert the link tutor without delay. • The link tutor will discuss whether an action plan should be put in place to support the student

  7. Moderation activity • Look at the level descriptors for one of the Teachers’ Standards and discuss with a colleague how well your student teacher is meeting it. • What is your rationale? • Where would any supporting evidence be found? • NB TS3 relates to general subject knowledge but the Profile document provides an opportunity to break this down to the core subjects

  8. Mentor’s role in assessment • Monitoring and assessing trainee’s progress each week through regular observation, debriefing and target setting • Checking trainee’s evidence against the Standards for both phases

  9. Working with additional adults • NQT survey – area for development • Please share your expertise on working with TAs and other adults in the classroom • Procedures to ensure effective communication with additional adults • Using additional adults to support assessment • Managing difficult relationships
