Independent learning at its best

This week I had the pleasure of visiting a Year 8 Textiles lesson. The classroom was absolutely buzzing with productivity. The students,  expertly guided by Mrs Pattni, were all at various stages of their project. Once they had reflected upon their progress from the previous session they set off to work cutting, sewing and sticking the room was a hive of excitement. It was lovely to see the relationships and trust between the students in the room, offering each other support and guidance on different techniques and how to improve their work.
