Sharing Top Tips

It was great to hear from one of our top teachers in our Friday Faculty Foci last week. Mrs Paddick shared a simple but highly effective ‘top tip‘ she uses to mark work smartly.

Demonstrating on the big screen in the Main Hall how she adds pertinent feedback comments to electronic work submitted by students, was really helpful and will hopefully be another clever strategy we can all add to our increasingly full toolbox of teacher tips.

We all know that feedback from teachers, when acted upon in DIRT time in lessons is one of the most powerful ways to drive up improvement and secure outstanding progress in learning.
