Departmental Review

There are several options available to HODs who wish to review and reflect upon the practice within their department, whether that be the teaching and learning, their own leadership, the culture within the department, or a more robust and thorough review.

Using the Evaluation Toolkit (PDF here) to help individuals identify areas of their teaching they are particularly strong or weak at, in order to share expertise across the department
Designing a Subject Knowledge Audit in order to see how good the subject knowledge of each member of the department is, and then share expertise to improve the subject knowledge of all members.
Using the Evaluating Professional Learning Culture survey to spark a discussion about the professional learning that takes place within the department and how to continue to improve.
Request Coaching, either Instructional Coaching if you or a member of the department wishes to work on their curriculum planning, pedagogy, assessment or community building, or Growth Coaching for other areas of development, such as leadership.
Requesting a Departmental Review (by filling in the form and submitting to the T&L Coordinator) to take a more in depth look at one or more areas of the department. This review will be planned alongside the HOD and members of the department to target the areas they wish to work on.
