| Summary: | A look at how three advanced skills teachers, at Latchmere Junior School in Kingston upon Thames, meet some of the key professional standards expected of them. Kevin Hogston is responsible for creativity and meditation in the school. He has introduced several innovative relaxation and calming techniques for pupils to use and trains other staff to use them, both from Latchmere and other schools in the borough. Jane Seeley is AST for creativity and art. Watch as she teaches one of her special art projects in the school. Jane takes her pupils onto the streets of Kingston to plan an art journey through the town for other schools to use. Sally Crowe's speciality is science and, as well as teaching and running the school's science clubs, she spends one day a week sharing her expertise with colleagues in other schools. This programme follows Steve Immison, an Advanced Skills Teacher at a secondary school in west London, to see how he meets some of the key requirements of the job - teaching in the school, supporting and advising colleagues within his own school and helping a neighbouring school to overcome some difficulties. The AST Professional Standards include:a)taking on a strategic leadership role in developing workplace policies and practice and in promoting collective responsibility for their implementation in their own and other schools b)being part of or working closely with leadership teams, taking a leadership role in developing, implementing and evaluating policies and in their own and other workplaces that contribute to school improvement c)having the analytical, interpersonal and organisational skills necessary to work effectively with staff and leadership teams beyond their own school. |
