AB Portfolio of Evidence by

2024-07-01 02:15:42 UTC

To determine eligibility for increased compensation by providing additional evidence that our responsibilities are being fulfilled

Are we worthy eligible for the salary increase😊😞

2024-07-01 02:15:49 UTC

Record of evidence in line with teacher duties and responsibilities

2024-07-01 02:17:53 UTC

Portfolios require two (2) years worth of evidence, yet this was only announced mid-year. Not all necessary documentation may have been retained, yet is still required ... ?

2024-07-01 02:28:13 UTC

Is the process of evaluation fair and objective?

2024-07-01 02:28:41 UTC

To give us a better idea of what evidence is needed.

2024-07-04 07:39:54 UTC

Rubric / Grading System

2024-07-04 07:40:12 UTC

Will the rubric/grading system to evaluate this process be shared?

It is to see who is eligible for the increase to their salary.

2024-07-04 07:40:30 UTC

2024-07-04 07:41:18 UTC

To determine whether or not a teacher has made a positive contribution in their school.

To add more paper work to our work load

To establish evidence of professional progression and impact

2024-07-04 07:41:28 UTC

A slight increase to your salary

2024-07-04 07:41:43 UTC

To decide who gets paid more.

7belindabooysen3 — 2024-07-04 07:42:10 UTC

To prove a teacher is eligible for an increase in salary by providing proof of 4 different standards.

Accountability

2024-07-04 07:42:40 UTC

2024-07-04 07:42:41 UTC

An increase in salary but also a chance to be told you're not good enough.

2024-07-04 07:43:03 UTC

Small increase, is it worth the trouble for that amount of money?

2024-07-04 07:43:33 UTC

It is time consuming to be collecting all this evidence constantly....taking away from our best practice in teaching

The purpose of evidence supplied by teachers? There must be a higher purpose than just a gateway to a slight pay increment because it's going to take up so many man-hours. I guess CfBT will use the evidence as proof of impact in support of contract renewal with MoE?

How to make it fair not a creative writing task

2024-07-04 07:45:00 UTC

There are many progressions that students make in class that would be very hard to provide evidence for. In some schools, the fact that they can write the date, sit still or participate in an activity would be progress. How would we show that?

To give the appearance of providing salary increases.

2024-07-04 07:45:16 UTC

This adds to the ever increasing workload at schools

2024-07-04 07:45:37 UTC

A small increase in salary by completing busy work rather than providing a cost of living increase.

2024-07-04 07:46:10 UTC

Needless bureaucracy

2024-07-04 07:46:20 UTC

Much of this is already demonstrated and recorded for most teachers. If teachers complete CfBT CPD and pass TPA observations, job done. New contract bonus. No portfolio. No can of worms. Job done!

2024-07-04 07:46:21 UTC

Will the success criteria for the portfolio be shared beforehand?

7rgm7x2gqg — 2024-07-04 07:46:26 UTC

To reduce the number of teachers who receive a pay rise

Hoops that have to be jumped through in order to be given a cost of living salary increase.

2024-07-04 07:46:55 UTC

2024-07-04 07:47:32 UTC

The creation of a portfolio

Some recognition by way of a gratuity

What about people who get rejected?

2024-07-04 07:47:35 UTC

Challenges - frustrating to prove you provide high impact learning, developing knowledge and skills and contributing to professional development. These things are done daily so writing a litlle 150 word paragraph about each and every thing you do is time consuming.

7belindabooysen3 — 2024-07-04 07:48:04 UTC

The possibility of being declined doesn't sound attractive

2024-07-04 07:48:13 UTC

CfBT is a small company and reviewers may, subconsciously, be prejudiced against certain candidates for one reason or another.

2024-07-04 07:48:21 UTC

2024-07-04 07:51:27 UTC

Not in favour of this at all. I feel sympathetic to the edm's having to present this.

Will opting out of the portfolio application process be viewed negatively long term.

2024-07-04 07:51:31 UTC

To encourage (and reward) higher standards of professional engagement

2024-07-04 07:58:21 UTC

There are more dangers and pitfalls to this than benefits (as far as I can see)

2024-07-04 07:59:23 UTC

7rgm7x2gqg — 2024-07-04 08:10:02 UTC

To create hurdles and put teachers off the process of applying and by doing so reduce the amount of money that has to be paid out otherwise eligible teachers.
