Teaching and learning

Clear teaching, careful assessment

Lessons are teacher-led, relationship-rich and adapted to each young person. Assessment starts on day one and guides the personal plan.

Classroom practice

How we teach

Adaptive teaching

Tasks, explanations and expectations are adjusted so every learner can succeed from their starting point.

Scaffolding

Models, sentence starters, chunked instructions and worked examples help young people access ambitious work.

Retrieval practice

Regular low-stakes recall strengthens memory and helps staff see what has stuck.

Feedback

Feedback is timely, specific and focused on what to improve next, in books, conversation and practical work.

Assessment

Baseline, formative and summative assessment inform teaching, personal plans and pathway decisions.

Extra help strategies

Where a young person needs more support, staff use agreed strategies from the personal plan and one-page profile.

Quality

Checked and improved

Leaders use learning walks, lesson observations, work scrutiny and student voice to check that teaching is ambitious and adapted well.

Staff development focuses on relationships, adaptive teaching, literacy and behaviour for learning.
