The choreography of teaching 30 children at the same time > quite a long read but dare I say I think it's worth it. Nail this, you've nailed it! https://t.co/R9fxgXRcgK via @teacherhead

A super day with staff at George Heriot’s School, Edinburgh. Themes included:
✅ Feedback
✅ Formative & summative use of assessment
✅ Valid and reliable assessment judgements
✅ Curriculum
Great discussion from everyone 😊
Improving teaching shouldn’t feel complex or fragmented. Teaching WalkThrus breaks evidence into 5 practical steps, giving teachers a shared language that actually sticks.

Latest Episode: MindtheGap with me and @Emma_Turner75 Scaffolding Effectively with Alex @lamb_heart_tea and Rachel @MrsBallAP talking about their brilliant book. https://t.co/Z4MFTdA5pM
Great to be back at Alloa Academy today for continued work with the extended leadership team. We were exploring practical approaches to power up leadership of teaching, focusing on pedagogy and curriculum. Brilliant to hear about so much positive impact over the last 12 months 😊
Another great session with teachers at Wester Hailes High School, Edinburgh, this afternoon. Building on themes from our previous two sessions, we were unpacking ‘differentiated support and challenge’ and ‘adaptive teaching’. Always a super team to work with 😊
It bothers me when the sensible push back on ‘three differentiated levelled tasks every lesson’ and undeliverable individualised learning ideals .. turns into an anti-differentiation dogma (almost a fetish!) : teach everyone the same as if they all have the same starting points and really it’s just too bad if they don’t get it; it’s up to them to catch up.!
Another great session with teachers from Park Primary School and cluster colleagues this afternoon. This was the 5th in our Power Up Your Pedagogy twilight series, with today’s focus being feedback and plenary reviews. Super contributions 😊
Big year ahead for me with @WALKTHRUs_5 including
👉 first work trip to India next week
👉two Australia trips - big systems and school visits
👉 Big Classroom events across the UK, Perth, Sydney
👉@educationFest events in Shanghai, Barcelona,
👉@researchEd1 in Guernsey, Santiago, St Louis
👉New partnership with Aberdeenshire - 160 schools
👉More work with @EngelskaSkolan and @toetsrevolutie
👉A new book focused on EYFS (details tbc)
👉Tons of resources for Big Classroom launched on our site.
👉Classroom video project with @HaringeyEduc
It's exciting to have this work... thanks to everyone engaging with what we do.
