Understanding PDP reviews
PDP reviews, or Professional Development Plans, are a structured approach to teacher evaluation commonly used in Victorian government schools. Aligned with departmental requirements, PDP Reviews focus on supporting teacher development and improving student learning outcomes.
The PDP review cycle
The PDP review process typically involves four key stages:
Start cycle: Teachers set goals and outline their development plans.
Mid-cycle review: Reflect on progress, adjust goals as needed, and gather feedback.
Annual professional discussion: Discuss professional learning and development with supervisors.
End-cycle review: Evaluate overall progress and consider future priorities.
Key components of PDP reviews
SMART Goals: Setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals.
Professional Domains: Focusing on student outcomes, professional knowledge, practice, and engagement.
Evidence Collection: Gathering evidence to demonstrate progress and achievement.
Regular Feedback: Receiving ongoing feedback from supervisors and mentors.
