Dear Teachers,

Today’s discussion will focus on the assessment of Criterion D: Reflecting and Improving Performance. We will use the example of “Beating Your Best,” a previous ePortfolio unit.

When discussing Criterion D, it’s important to note that students are required to reflect as both coaches and clients. This article aims to provide you with ideas on how to effectively guide students by offering details that facilitate their reflection process.

Before we begin, ensure you don’t miss out on our eBooks designed to enhance your teaching. These invaluable resources can assist you in refining your teaching practices, making you even more effective educators.

How the goals were met – (Both physical and psychological goals) including

reference to:

▪ Pre-test (Initial results in task 1),

your Performance Development Programme).

explanation to show the relationship of the data presented.

you to achieve the goals? Use specific examples to present your

understanding.

You have such a clear vision of how PHE can elevate itself well beyond just the ‘doing’ of sport and become an essential part of every students’ education experience.
