The Plus student portfolio examples

Some examples of student portfolio work, submitted as part of the Medway Plus Certificate, are listed below. They include the comments made by teachers and should be read in conjunction with the other information on this website about the Medway Plus Certificate.

How to use this best practice portfolio - information for students

It should be remembered that these portfolio examples include evidence from a number of students. The pages chosen are meant to act as a useful guide to help other students produce their own evidence. Each portfolio is individual to the student who creates it and they do not have to provide the evidence in a particular format. The more they directly reflect upon the skill levels, however, (participation, making decisions, initiative, leadership) the easier it will be for their tutor to assess their learning.

The following pages are particularly useful:
