Our Learning and Teaching : things to do (HGIOS part 2)

A
  1. Carry out a learning walk to
    have a good look at your
    school. Before you set off
    decide what aspects of
    learning you want to focus on.
    For example, you might look at
    wall displays, digital resources,
    outdoor facilities or the layout
    of classrooms.
  2. Arrange some visits to observe
    and record what learning and
    teaching are like. Before you
    do this, find out about your
    school’s learning and teaching
    policy. Work with staff to agree
    what you will consider when
    you are in lessons. Consider
    making your visits jointly with
    staff.
  3. Meet with focus groups of
    pupils from different stages
    across the school. Decide
    what questions will help them
    to express their views. It might
    be good to focus on specific
    aspects of learning and
    teaching for example,
    homework, books and
    equipment or how pupils get
    choices in learning.
  4. Work with staff to identify and
    analyse data on aspects of
    school life, for example,
    bullying incidents, positive
    relationship/behaviour
    programmes, attendance and
    exclusions and attainment.
  5. Find out if your school’s
    curriculum is meeting pupils’
    needs. This might focus on a
    particular curriculum area or be
    a broader look across the
    school.
