Reflection and Development

Reflection and Development

This category includes independent reading, reflection on teaching, and professional development planning. 

Keeping a reflective reading log 
Some CMBEs document their reading on pedagogic topics and outline how this learning has influenced their practice. A professional reading diary or annotated bibliography can serve as evidence. 

Self-evaluation and forward planning 
Conducting a teaching self-assessment and identifying areas for growth is valuable CPD. You can log this with a short statement detailing how you plan to develop your practice. 

Maximum hours claimable per year: up to 10 hours
