Learning objectives succeed or fail because of the verb. Words like understand know or appreciate sound good but cannot be seen measured or proven. The fix is simple. Use actions you can watch Instead of understand say follow. Instead of be aware say apply. Observable verbs mean clear goals and easy results. ♻️ Repost to help others in your network with this. ➕ And follow me at Sean McPheat for more.

Absolutely loved reading this - thank you. My takeaway is how powerful subject development meetings can be when they’re protected spaces for teachers to think deeply, rehearse subject‑specific pedagogy, and prepare intellectually for what’s coming next. I especially loved the idea of videoing great subject meetings as models - such a smart way to make expert thinking visible and build shared practice across teams 🤩

***GREAT TEACHING FRAMEWORK*** Our great teaching framework is nearly complete. Over the last few months, we (@MissCole279) have been working on creating a shared language of what excellent teaching looks like in every classroom. The framework is built around seven key principles. Each principle is underpinned by: Clear instructional components ✅ Observable classroom techniques ✅ Coaching questions ✅ This isn’t a checklist. This is a framework to ensure that every student experiences high quality teaching. #TheLongdendaleLegacy

@oliviajune82 I remember at a researchED hearing @Ruth_Ashbee talking about 'declarative' knowledge (knowledge 'that') and 'procedural' knowledge (knowledge 'how'). I found that more useful than knowledge vs. skills...

My return train has been cancelled due to the heat but at least I am *on my way* to @LitdriveUK 🙏 Looking forward to meeting all the English teachers who are at Aston University today, giving up their time today to think about how the next academic year can be even better.

Exercise books are so temptingly inspectable. You can flick through then and feel you’ve seen learning. But full pages, neat titles, coloured pens and polished paragraphs are, at best, just proxies. The more beautiful a book is often the less evidence of learning it provides. More often, it’s evidence we’re looking in the wrong place. open.substack.com/pub/daviddidau…

Reactive bitesized CPD that is instantly implementable in the classroom! *What is your favourite biscuit?* A question with a low floor but a high ceiling…amongst other things; exactly what we need to think about when teaching to the top! There’s only one answer by the way…

This morning’s bitesize CPD sharpened our approach to the 6 fundamentals of great teaching, especially adaptive and responsive teaching. Snappy learning, instant classroom impact.

@Yorkshire_Steve @greeborunner Completely agree. But.. How would ofsted et al measure the impact of KS3 provision? What are the key indicators? Books? Student voice?

Ks3 curriculums should have educational merit and rigour in their own right. We should check whether schools are teaching it well and pupils are learning what was intended, especially those who don't take it as an option.

This recommendation in the White working class report from @PolicyFirst is spot on. Anyone who has heard me speak has heard variances of me banging on about 'if a secondary school wants to improve ks4 outcomes, then make ks3 awesome, ks4 is a lot easier then!'

@Catlin_Tucker I remember when I was young and very bad at teaching i used to do stations. They looked great, but nobody learnt anything Now im old and average at teaching i have discovered the virtues of "students sitting in their seats" and "everyone doing the same thing at the same time"
