"Not all teachers use the information they gather about pupils’ progress in their lessons to change their plans during the lessons and so some pupils cannot move on quickly enough."
At Bexhill, due to our priorities and school development plan, there had been lots of CPD to help improve teaching and learning for teachers. School is in a much better position now, we need to start to differentiate our CPD and spread our skills.
What Next?
How do teachers support TAs to ensure they support children to make progress?
- Share findings and impact
- Staff from across the Trust can access CPD
- Variety of skills across the academies to use
- Cross trust validation
- As the trust grows, it is another benefit to offer to schools joining us
Today's Objectives
- To think about how we use additional Adults.
- To think about the impact additional adults have on the progress our children make.
- To consider how we could use adults more effectively.
- to consider how we can ensure TAs are successful.
