@garethkthomas @Abeesknee3101 Like showing the class how many red flags a young person has to shame them? Yes, it happens! Also used to ascertain if a young person can take part in school activities. Utterly disgraceful.

@garethkthomas Looking back as we are about to finish secondary school “journey”, this has been an absolutely horrific communication method. Would be interesting if young people were able to send red and green flags into school!

@FionaLeadbeater Pinching from a career guidance/education perspective! Thank you for sharing.

Adaptive teaching = high quality teaching Often good teachers don’t realise what they are actually doing to adapt to learners’ needs; it’s done on autopilot. Breaking down the granular detail of practice&being able to verbalise WHY it works for each learner is so valuable.
