emerging leaders: mentoring, coaching, research sharing

You’re already a great teacher – through this course we’ll build on:

• Strengthening your skills inside the classroom and supporting your peers

• create a portfolio of evidence for NESA accreditation

Thinking of moving towards Highly Accomplished/Lead Teacher level

We will explore the proficiency standards and describe what accreditation involves.

The workshop is designed to provide discussion on understanding the requirements of the HA/LT standards in science. You will be supported in the analysis of the APST to plan your own goals whilst supporting colleagues to identify and achieve their own goals.

Accreditation Standards:
6.1.2 – Use the APST and advice from colleagues to identify and plan professional learning needs.
6.3.2 – Contribute to collegial discussions and apply constructive feedback from colleagues to improve professional knowledge and practice.
6.4.2 – Undertake professional learning programs designed to address identified student learning needs.
7.4.2 – Participate in professional and community networks and forums to broaden knowledge and improve practice.
