Retrieval practice is the single most well supported research-informed learning strategy. Supporting pupils to try to recall prior content, is helping them learn. Take a look ⬇️👀💥

You may have seen the 2nd Ed. of the @deansforimpact report on the Science of Learning is out! Now includes pitfalls + self-regulation.

Here's a summary - probably most useful AFTER you've read it, then a handy guide to look over as you plan!

Why use mini whiteboards? Data show their efficacy AND reduction in time off task! What's not to like!
Great flash webinar from @Inner_Drive @MrGoodwin23

One of my concerns with school playbooks/one pagers is they are often task based."Do Now,Cold Call,I do We do."What is often missing that leads to mutations is the underlying principles. Here is my first attempt at sharing a summary of my fav principles. Any one have any more

If you teach anyone at all, and you don't know about @helenrey's CogSci book summaries, you are missing out. It's a wonderful resource summarizing the most important books on cognitive science: https://t.co/TB0bPExfck

@HeroicMrT @LauraLolder Hi, I wondered if this is any help?

1st revision booklet written.💪Interesting going through mark-schemes (1st time teaching exam AIC in 8yrs) + seeing mostly, tier 2, vocab. Of course, mark-schemes are aimed at adults but concepts underpinning words need to be taught. For 2nd lang learners, there's a lot of vocab.

Useful in the run-up to SATs! 👇🏼

“Expected” is the new minimum.

Alternatively, and completely free, you can access the actual training materials we deliver to our inspectors. This is filling up all the time and comes directly from Ofsted without any risk of mistakes, misinformation or misinterpretation as can be the case when non-inspectors are selling a product. I’ve not read the book so can’t comment on the quality of Paul’s advice.

Here’s a small worksheet made to help students with AQA P2, Q5. All of these ideas are by the brilliant @Xris32. All I’ve done is put them in a grid. You can find the original blog with further exam hacks here: https://t.co/fvPv2yigAU @Team_English1 https://t.co/NUYdaMVQMM

[James Fitzgibbon @mrfitzhist]

Incline knowledge recall has become a go to ‘Do now’ task/starter for quick retrieval and a settled start. All students have questions they can immediately access but difficulty develops with confidence. Moving from multiple choice Q’s to short written answers. #historyteacher

There are lots of ways secondary schools can reduce truanting, but they are not easy to implement. They require high consistency amongst staff & leadership that will analyse every detail of a system. Successful implementation of the following requires a LOT of thought. 1/

[Darren Leslie @dnleslie]

Strongly recommend this implementation guide for school leaders from @C_Hendrick

It cuts through the noise and shows how to turn cognitive science into day-to-day practice. Clear principles, practical tools, and a focus on what actually improves learning. A genuinely useful resource for driving high-quality teaching across a school.
