After the release of the “Use of teaching assistants in schools” in September, I have spent the last few weeks reading, internalising and reflecting on what this research from the DfE essentially tells us (with strengths & developments needed)

Rehearsal is essential to developing teacher technique, as we look at strengthening our routines & transitions to ensure staff are in position to support children attend to learning, we took our weekly PD outside to embed habitual change as part of protected group rehersal!

Our ever growing coaching programme is again, another huge focus for us this year. It’s important to recognise how busy teachers are; so reminders, prompts, cues are essential to success. Here is an example of this week’s coaching bulletin.

Prompts & cues are an essential element of ensuring effective professional development. This year, we are communicating exactly what we need our staff to do to be successful through a weekly coaching bulletin. Here is next week’s!
