Maria Haggett ** __Leading staff through the digital education revolution__ ** Levels of education % with masters % within age groups % turnover PL model: clusters, compulsory, cross campus and cross curricula – highly resented. Would we ever give our students the exact same tasks? Positives: cross campus contact. Negative: felt very punitive Good recipe for turning teachers into petulant 13 year olds. Did not cater for varying levels of ability. Survey staff, ask for honest responses. Need for time and lack of confidence. Peer coaching and small group teaching List of options set up so everyone can do three and presenters were let off one session to attend another session. Get each teacher to set one goal, link it to a VIT focus area. Asked them who could help them. Reflection box for reactions: what did you learn today, how has it helped your teaching etc. Optional attendance; it is each teacher’s professional responsibility to complete the VIT minimum PL. Allow them to attend the sessions that suit them: far more powerful. Professional reading group (wine and cheese or coffee and cake). 3.45.-4.30pm. Set the reading. (had to kick them out at 5.15) Get participants to set the reading s for the next session. Read Spriner’s Chp 1 Brain based teaching (available online). (Need staff meeting place)
