Lesson details

Key learning points

  2. Think: constantly evolving as a leader and working on areas for improvement requires reflection.
  3. Feel: growing in confidence while developing leadership requires listening to our strengths and areas of development.

Keywords

  • Self-assessment - the process of evaluating oneself

  • Strengths - the leadership qualities you feel you perform well at

  • Weaknesses - the leadership qualities you feel are an area for improvement

Common misconception

Pupils think self-assessment is similar to being assessed in something.

Self-assessment is an opportunity to reflect and does not count towards any assessment. It is positive. Leaders are able to grow from self-assessments as they recognise strengths, but more importantly, identify keys areas of improvement.
