At Bushey Meads we are fortunate to attract each and every year some superb student teachers and newly qualified teachers who come to work in our great school. Often they are the ones who learn about and use all the latest pedagogical strategies in their lessons to maximise progress for students.

On Monday of this week our Monday Magic Moment, led by one of our key leaders in English Mr Carter, focussed on the power of the online learning platform SENECA. Many...
