Evaluating your teaching is one of the most effective ways to develop as a teacher. It helps
you:
• identify your strengths and weaknesses
• assess pupils’ progress
• assess the effectiveness of the teaching, learning and management
methods you have used with the class
• plan ways forward with all of the above issues.
The lesson plan proforma you are required to use has sections for you to complete so that
there is clear evidence that you are reviewing and evaluating you and your pupils’
progress.
Below are a number of prompts, which may provide a focus to assist your evaluations.
This is not meant to be a ‘catch all’ list; some lessons will require you to evaluate specific
aspects in detail.
• Q-A: general questions and target questions. Open Qs and closed Qs.
• Pupils’ involvement
• Resources used
• Differentiation: how were the most able stretched and the less able involved
meaningfully?
• Discipline and Behaviour. How well did you manage your class?
• Did you set/collect/return homework? When will you mark it and hand it
back?
• What changes and action do you need to take with this class?
