   2. have a secure understanding of how a range of factors can inhibit pupils’ ability to learn, and how best to overcome these
   3. demonstrate an awareness of the physical, social and intellectual development of children, and know how to adapt teaching to support pupils’ education at different stages of development
   4. have a clear understanding of the needs of all pupils, including those with special educational needs; those of high ability; those with English as an additional language; those with disabilities; and be able to use and evaluate distinctive teaching approaches to engage and support them.
6. Make accurate and productive use of assessment
   1. make use of formative and summative assessment to secure pupils’ progress
   2. use relevant data to monitor progress, set targets, and plan subsequent lessons

   3. deploy support staff effectively
   4. take responsibility for improving teaching through appropriate professional development, responding to advice and feedback from colleagues
   5. communicate effectively with parents with regard to pupils’ achievements and well-being.

 

Part Two: PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT

 

• Teachers uphold public trust in the profession and maintain high standards of ethics and behaviour, within and outside school, by:
  • treating pupils with dignity, building relationships rooted in mutual respect, and at all times observing proper boundaries appropriate to a teacher’s professional position
  • having regard for the need to safeguard pupils’ well-being, in accordance with statutory provisions
  • showing tolerance of and respect for the rights of others
  • ensuring that personal beliefs are not expressed in ways which exploit pupils’ vulnerability or might lead them to break the law.

 

• Teachers have proper and professional regard for the ethos, policies and practices of the school
• Teachers maintain high standards in their punctuality, attendance and appearance

 

N.B. LTAs should be helped to use the Professional Standards for Teaching Assistants but should not be held accountable to them due to the differences in training that they receive.

 

Similarly, Headteachers should use the Professional Standards for Headteachers as a self-reflection tool but they “should not be used as a checklist or as a baseline, and any shortcoming with respect to the standards is not, in and of itself, the basis for questioning competence or initiating capability.” (DfE, 2015, p. 8)
