Standard 16

Context:

I created the standard 16 checklist to show that I have met the indicators of standard 16.

Impact:

Completing the indicators has helped me to feel part of the school because my beliefs in education are heard and understood by colleagues. I better understand how a school is run and the different responsibilities teachers have after the students leave.

Alignment:

See checklist.
