When this came out I desperately wanted to like this but couldn't quite get away with it. Saw them at the Sugarhouse in Lancaster and thought 'they're alright'. Years later I can't go more than a few days without listening to this masterpiece of an LP

I completely agree. In addition to the positive impact on progress in secondary it contributes to an equitable approach, aspiration and improves whole school culture. I read some research that it can also promote a sense of well-being and belonging. All round worth the effort I say!!

Mastered But Not Understood: Why Learning Doesnโ€™t Scale the Way We Think It Does On the "embarrassingly parallel problem" and what it reveals about the limits of learning technology.

On the difference between learning that scales and learning that doesn't, and what a concept from computer science can teach us about where educational technology succeeds and where it reliably fails. carlhendrick.substack.com/p/the-embarr...

"the problem with much classroom feedback is not that it is poorly intentioned, but that it is misaligned. We give feedback as if it will automatically produce learning, when in reality it only produces information."

What if we're giving too much feedback? Great post from @didau.bsky.social

Strategic Inclusion My previous blog talked about how we can make our teaching more inclusive. I had lots of responses to this, and one of the key themes of the responses was people discussing things that get in the wโ€ฆ

Right, I have done another blog. This one gives advice on how to ensure whole school Inclusion. I am sure there is lots missing, but if you follow this you won't be far off. In my opinion, obviously...

Teachers โ€” want real-time insight into student understanding? Try hinge questions.

A hinge question is a multiple-choice question asked at a key moment in a lesson to check whether pupils are ready to move on.

A simple but powerful formative assessment tool.
