University of Brighton Grading Descriptors
Grading descriptors are intended to enable trainees and their mentors to assess and discuss trainees’ progress over time against the Teachers’ Standards and their sub-headings.
Teachers’ Standards
Published in 2012, these are the standards that all UK teachers must meet. Trainees are assessed and graded according to the progress they make in meeting these standards.
