***GREAT TEACHING FRAMEWORK***
Over the last few months we have been working on developing our great teaching framework to ensure every student experiences consistently high quality teaching.
Our framework has four key drivers of excellence:
✅ Subject knowledge
✅ Relationships
✅ Routines
✅ Hard Thinking
The framework has six principles, key components and linked techniques from @WALKTHRUs_5, @teacherhead, @olicav and TLAC @Doug_Lemov. We have mapped the techniques to the Great Teaching Toolkit.
For each technique, we have codified what it means and our teaching and practice labs CPD sessions allow staff to get it, see it and try it.
We then use @Steplab_co for our coaching model to keep it, fit it and continue to try it through deliberate practice.

Seven elements in tackling complex problems in a work context (not necessarily in a linear order: all these elements are interconnected):
1. Step back to see the wider picture: we need to pull ourselves out of the details/specifics because of the interdependencies in big, complex problems: systems thinking, system mapping, soft systems &/or network analysis can help.
2. Get input from people with a wide range of experiences & expertise.
3. invest time & energy in external research: lessons learned in other organisations & the expertise of researchers, thought leaders & regulators.
4. Revisit our principles & values to help guide our approach as to how we are going to implement change.
5. Build our tolerance for uncertainty & risk: how can we learn, grow & more effectively navigate the increasing complexity of our world?
6. Create small scale tests of change to understand what might work.
7. Continuously learn, adapt & improve.

Pupils' ability to recall learning at a later date, can be improved by sharing with pupils the retrieval cue.
This is the process of showing pupils how learning is connected, or making the expert schema explicit.
