Default identify sources of support for planning and reviewing own development

can anyone add more to this plz

Line manager - they help me by answering any concerns I have about work.
Observations - college assessor comes in to watch you do your job and then talks to you about any concerns they have seen they will advise and support you with your performance and development. Also head teacher and line manager do observations on us every few months.
Colleagues - you can talk to other LSA’s and TA’s about your work to get guidance on things, and also observe or shadow them to help you see how some things are done improving your development.
Meetings - we have staff and key stage meetings where progress is discussed and you get to know about any new plans and any changes that are going on.
Training - to be able to learn the things that you are struggling with by going on various courses to improve your development.
Mentors - someone who is assigned to you to be able to answer your questions about the job and put you on the right path.
Self assessment - reflecting on your work helps you to plan different ways of doing things and helps you see your progression.
Class teacher - you can go to them with any concerns about your work and progress and they will regularly feedback to you on your progress and development.
Yearly appraisal - this is a meeting to discuss your development progress where you can ask questions and review the things in your job description to make sure you are meeting them.

Hi Claireh, I also included:
INSET days - can help to identify gaps in your knowledge where more training may be required.
Course folder - your setting may have one of these - which holds records of all the courses available for you to go one. you might see something that you hadn't thought of, or feel you need to attend to develop your knowledge further.
Staff notice board - sometimes courses or training sessions are advertised here.
otherwise I think you've pretty much covered it.
Mrs Noah
