Structured workplace observation with a form based on behavioural anchors.
Behavioural anchors
| Level | Behaviour at this level |
|---|---|
| N1 Guided | Conducts a guidance conversation under supervision using the standard form and records the agreements in the pupil file. works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task |
| N3 Proficient | Independently analyses the cause of lagging results, makes a plan with the pupil and involves parents and the support team. sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process |
| N5 Leading | Develops the school's guidance structure, draws up referral protocols and coaches mentors in their role. sets the standard and the policy · strategic, under high uncertainty · organisation, value chain or profession |
N2 and N4 are deliberately not anchored. Raters place them between the anchors, following the O*NET convention.
