Loughborough Grammar School’s group of teachers keen to bring educational theory into practice… yes, we are those people!

"The purpose of school is not just to learn, but is to become a better human being. Sure, you also need to know your math and history facts. But the point of school is to gain skills like compassion, self-awareness, organization, and kindness. That is a teacher's ultimate goal."

Thread - A summary of my presentation on ‘Improving T&L at Scale’ - my thinking on how we can improve T&L across a number of schools - based on my experience, reading, research, and talking to brilliant colleagues about their approaches.

Here’s a useful tip to help students improve their writing. ✍️ 🤩 #teaching
Ask them to read their work aloud. While it may not feel as natural—or as modest—as reading silently, it can help them catch often-overlooked errors @LboroGrammar

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

Relatable! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

This ‘knowledge of student thinking’ is an element of Great Teaching - one that can be planned for.

Blog pending.. just thinking about the smallest number of key principles that might then inform all the actions in responsive teaching such that everyone is learning 1/2

My YouTube channel has plenty of videos focusing on retrieval practice in the classroom with videos for teachers, parents & students.
