For effective implementation in schools, we need everyone to be on the same page.

👉 Last week I reflected on implementing whole-staff rehearsal at my school. Hear why we did it in Part 1 bit.ly/3Z3bffL and how we did it (and the impact) in Part 2 bit.ly/3Z8irr4 #professionaldevelopment #PD

Those who live and breathe curriculum and assessment by teaching every day have a deep and unique understanding of what’s going well and what needs to improve.

If that’s you, please do share your precious insights through the call for evidence.

Important post on how it’s crucial to consider the ‘why’ in designing PD. Teachers must develop ‘awareness’ and ‘insight’ in order to enact great practice in the classroom, so anyone designing great PD needs to know how to activate those elements through their training.

Part 2 of my reflection on implementing whole-staff rehearsal: bit.ly/3Z8irr4 In this post, I break down the structure of our weekly rehearsal sessions and share insights and actionable tips for school leaders wanting to integrate group rehearsal into their PD programmes.

New post reflecting on the impact of whole-staff rehearsal at my previous school: bit.ly/3Z3bffL Part 1: the challenge (tackling inconsistency, putting teaching improvement at the heart of our work, and exploring the evidence behind rehearsal). Reflections welcome!
