Finding a solution to improving whole school teaching and, in turn, learning is difficult. There are so many variables in different contexts and this makes finding a universal solution near impossible.
Quality first teaching must be at the forefront of our work, and in order for us to work effectively and efficiently, teachers need a solid framework on which they can base and adapt their practice. Moreover, when it comes to individual and collective progression, a school or a trust needs to have a commonality of language to ensure that their discussions, evaluations and adaptations of practice is synchronised.
As a teacher (and leader) in a school that has made rapid improvements, I know first-hand the power of the right pedagogical approach. For us, that approach has been found in former teacher and principal Doug Lemov’s books Teach Like a Champion (2010) and Teach Like a Champion 2.0 (2014).
