@tombennett71 Totally agree. Consistent boundaries and high standards results in the pupils trusting that you have their best interests and then that trust builds good relationships
@DavidDidau I think it all comes down to knowing your pupils again. If you know them then you can ask them appropriate questions based on what you need to check they understand. Having a classroom environment where they feel safe to make mistakes is a must first.
Our incredible daughter Liz died in the early hours of this morning. She remained determined to the last. Even yesterday she was still making plans. We are so very proud of the kindness, empathy and courage she has shown in the last year. She was not only a phenomenal photographer, she was the best human, and the most wonderful daughter and big sister we could ever have asked for. No one could have fought harder for life than she did. There is a gaping Liz shaped hole in our lives that I am not sure how we will ever fill. We have so much gratitude to every single one of you, whether you offered to help, or liked or shared posts - you ensured Liz’s last two months were her very best. She flew high until the end.
We have two last favours to ask. Firstly, we would like to ask you to share one of her photos - on your social media, or in real life, however you can. Let’s let her go out with a bang. #LizHatton (photos will follow in a thread but do also feel free to choose your own from @lizhatton_photography on Instagram)
Secondly, if you can we would like you to help us with a mission to raise money to fund research into Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour. With no charity in the UK or internationally funding into effective treatments are lacking. In 2024 a 15% 5 year survival rate is simply not enough. Together we can change that. Whether you can share, donate or raise funds - please be our village one more time. Let’s make this the last item on her bucket list and make sure other families don’t face a similar fate: https://t.co/iSsJO83LLs
The importance of focusing on the learner and their needs, rather than the label when addressing disadvantage (@SENDMattersUK has made me think hard about this).
Unless systemic changes are made that include Education, Health and Social Care our children and families will continue to suffer. #SEND#autism#ADHD#adoption
***ASSESSMENT***
Assessment is the bridge between teaching and learning. When effective it provides rich information to determine how much and how well students have learnt the intended curriculum.
In classrooms, assessment is an integral part of teaching. All interactions with students during a lesson are a potential opportunity to gather information to monitor students success against the intended curriculum aims.
What are we working on @LHS_HighSchool ?
