 * __ TERM 1: __**

**__ GOALS FOR 2012 __**

Goals can be long term, short term or daily, e.g.:
 * // ‘By the end of the year…’ //
 * // ‘By the end of this term…’ //
 * // ‘This lesson…’ //

They help you to focus on parts of your life and teaching that are the most important. Its also allows you to reflect, which is an important part of teaching.

When setting individual goals, it is important that they are __SMART__.

S: __Specific__ to you. M: __Measurable__ (you can measure progress and achievement). A: __Achievable__ (you will be able to achieve). R: __Realistic__ (Similar to achievable –when we set unrealistic goals we are not often rewarded with progress or achievement of those goals). T: __Timeframe__ is given (e.g: one month, one year…).

This year you will be required to set goals at the beginning of the year which will be reviewed by Warwick Maguire and your HOD. Your staff mentor will also read the goals you set in this handbook. You can use the same goals for this workbook as those which you identify for the principal.
