# March

![](/files/aD7zWhp2so5tCp1wTm2h)

### Administration

Download and review the March coordinator’s notes from the implementation section of the PRC.

Facilitate meetings for the standardisation of IA marks and the final grade of the reflective project.

Review professional development needs. Select the [best training option](https://www.ibo.org/professional-development/find-events-and-workshops/) for your school and teacher’s circumstances.

* Face-to-face training often provides the most rewarding experience, but travel and accommodation can be expensive.
* Virtual (synchronous) training saves a lot of money and may be ideal for teachers who are unable to travel.
* Online (asynchronous) workshops are the cheapest option but can lack the interaction among educators that enhance the experience and add value to the shared information: these workshops are self-paced modules with weekly assignments, and the training period lasts 4 weeks

Update completed and scheduled professional training on ‘My IB’.

* Go to ‘my school’ → school profile → school staff → edit → roles with IB → edit subject → edit professional development -->add workshop (put it in as ‘future’).
* After teachers have attended, follow the same steps, but edit the workshop and change to ‘attended’.
* Save certificates of completion (after workshops).

### Assessment

Read the conduct of exams manual and make an exam plan that includes locations and invigilators.

* IB teachers may not invigilate their own subject, but can help with others.
* Coordinators may invigilate (and should begin and end) all exams, including courses that they teach.
* Include plans for inclusive arrangements (this may require a separate room and extra invigilators).
* Print conduct of exams manuals.

### Teachers&#x20;

Facilitate meetings for the standardisation of student work for DP subjects and the  reflective project.&#x20;

{% hint style="success" %}
Consider introducing a similar standardisation process for the core components and facilitate meetings for PPS, SL, and language development teachers to review and reflect on student portfolios in the different core components.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Begin compiling resource requests for the following year.

### Marketing

Continue highlighting CP accomplishments on social media and/or school newsletters (e.g., college acceptance, scholarships, and notable accomplishments).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guide.fariaedu.com/cp-coordinator-handbook/march.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
