CONFIDENTIAL INDIVIDUALISED PROFILE (GEO 1A2 / 2A2 ‐ TEACHER) The EPMS Individualised Profile elaborates on the Key Result Areas (KRA) and competencies included in the EPMS Work Review Form for each sub‐grade: a) The KRA Role Profile provides greater clarity in terms of work expectations and details the level of work outcomes expected at your sub‐grade for the five KRAs indicated in Section 1 of the EPMS Work Review Form. It is intended to help you better understand the duties you are expected to perform in order to achieve the desired student, professional and organisational outcomes. To enable you to achieve each KRA, the table below includes key corresponding competencies which you can develop yourself in professionally. b) The Competency Behavioural Indicators (BIs) provide greater clarity in terms of how each competency indicated in Section 2 of the EPMS Work Review Form could be demonstrated if performed by an officer. This serves as a guide and is not meant to be prescriptive ‐ officers could share other ways in which they may have demonstrated a particular competency, if applicable. To develop the respective competencies, we have included the corresponding learning dimensions under the Teacher Growth Model (TGM) for your reference.
