***GREAT TEACHING FRAMEWORK***

Our great teaching framework is nearly complete. Over the last few months, we (@MissCole279) have been working on creating a shared language of what excellent teaching looks like in every classroom.

The framework is built around seven key principles. Each principle is underpinned by:

Clear instructional components ✅
Observable classroom techniques ✅
Coaching questions ✅

This isn’t a checklist. This is a framework to ensure that every student experiences high quality teaching.

Highly effective adaptation is where it is applied to such a degree, it is *almost* invisible.

What becomes more visible in fact, is that students not only achieve academically, but also experience success as part of their lived experience.

Excellent work from @EducEndowFoundn

The new EEF Guide to Inclusive Teaching is published today.

It's worth checking out. It contains guidance, summaries, myth busting & scenario based training plus more.

Created an intervention booklet pushing grade 7 students to grade 9 for English Literature, Paper 1 (AQA) with a specific focus on thesis statements for 'Macbeth' and 'ACC'. @teachals @SPryke2 @HughesHaili books were very helpful. Can be accessed via https://t.co/NAWZUM68To

***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.

💡 NEW POST 💡

“Literacy and Key Stage 3 Success’

“Without secure literacy foundations, academic success is denied long before GCSE examinations or intensive interventions begin.”

Too often, literacy becomes either overcomplicated or reduced to quick fixes.

I wrote 'Literacy Essentials for Every Teacher' to focus on the essentials of what all teachers need to know & do that will make an impact & improve learning.

One of the trickiest questions in vocabulary instruction is deceptively simple:

Which words should we explicitly teach?

After years working with schools on vocabulary, I explore that challenge here:
