CPD portfolio

Evidence of professional development during your probationary period should be gathered into a comprehensive CPD portfolio and kept for your own reference.

A framework exists for planning and documenting your professional development. Details can be found in the Probation process section.

Your portfolio will include:

1. details of relevant supply days / short term temporary service, accumulated through your Teaching service, contributing to your CPD experiences and evidencing your teaching practice   
2. your Professional Development Action Plan allowing you to identify CPD requirements
3. supporting evidence, discussed in How to meet the SFR, including plans and materials used during Observed Teaching Sessions and in other CPD experience
4. a copy of your Interim Report (at the end of your second term, or equivalent) or Final Report (at the end of your fourth term, or equivalent)

You will keep hold of the portfolio and use it to plan your professional development beyond probation.
