Professional Growth Cycle Our Professional Growth Cycle continues to develop as teachers actively set goals and work towards achieving them throughout Terms 2 and 3. This system, whereby learning leaders or Heads of Departments have professional conversations with staff, helps to build teacher knowledge and understanding of pedagogy. This cycle of planning, collection of evidence and reflection is the cornerstone of professional growth for individual teachers. The staff digital portfolio is a place staff can use to collate all their professional learning evidence together. Lesson observations are conducted between peers, and teaching strategies are exchanged and discussed.
