Annas professional knowledge is developing appropriately and her ability to digest and articulate the

confidence and reinforced her choice of vocation. She demonstrated the professional distance so
important in teaching whilst retaining the warmth that endeared her to the students and wider school

both assessing against the curriculum and planning follow up or extension lessons. Anna wants to
teach and is good at it.

Anna has a professional and comfortable style that allows her to effortlessly transcend the layers of her
professional duties. She is comfortable with students, parents and peers and she has the confidence to

well-constructed, thoroughly planned lessons and sought assistance from various sources within the
school in a professional manner.
