Assessment
The assessment process requires participants to present a ‘Reflective Journal/Portfolio’.
The purpose of this Journal is:
To help each participant document and reflect on key learning moments throughout the programme.
To encourage and harness a continuous reflective capacity that enables participants to witness, explore, ponder on, synthesise, evaluate and analyse, the key learning elements that are significant.
To encourage participants to apply some of the learning and knowledge from the programme to a specific task or role in their respective school or work environment.
All participants will receive a Certificate of Attendance in Leadership and Management in Education from LIT. For those participants who wish to achieve an accredited Level 7 Special Purpose Award (10 credits) in Leadership and Management in Education, the assessment process outlined above must be completed.
