Professional Behaviours
In order to ensure congruence with the 8 Teachers’ Standards, the content of the framework is presented in 8 sections.
Professional behaviours particularly important, from our perspective – underpins everything. Criticality etc.
Learn that… statements are informed by the best available educational research; references and further reading are provided below. Learn how to… statements are drawn from the wider evidence base including both academic research and additional guidance from expert practitioners.
Designed NOT to look like an assessment framework. What should be covered in the curriculum, NOT what they should be assessed against.
Includes wider reading – not designed to be comprehensive OR undisputed (cf professional behaviours). Wider reading designed to be both accessible and able to provoke thought and reflection.
