For teacher sub-standard 8a, you need to demonstrate that you consistently make a positive contribution to the wider life and ethos of the school.
The types of evidence you can use to showcase this are:
Supporting school at New Parents Evenings, etc.
Leading staff training sessions
Peer mentoring/coaching
Developing and contributing to development of SoW, policies
Engaging in enrichment activities – planning/leading/organising – to include after- school activities, residentials, whole school events, home/school events, clubs, fairs, community and charity events
Developing a whole school area – allotment, etc.
Mentoring trainees
Involvement with governors; PTA
Being a team player and taking ownership of the environment you ‘live in’
Remember that the evidence in isolation isn’t enough, you will need to annotate it to signpost exactly where/how you are meeting the standard.
You can use photographic evidence to support your evidence for this standard. Be sure to anonymise any student work or data by blacking out names or identifying details. If you’re using photographic evidence be sure to blank out student faces and any school logos.
