What I can do

The lesson plans at Outwood Grange Academies Trust are structured around the Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning, which are essential for enhancing effective teaching and supporting students' learning and self-regulation. Here are the five pillars:

1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers clearly communicate to students what they will learn and why it is important. This includes sharing subject learning journeys with the students【4:0†source】.

2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Teachers regularly revisit prior learning to ensure students retain key information from previous lessons【4:8†source】.

3. **New Information**: Teachers clearly introduce and model new learning in lessons. Activities are designed to help students develop their new understanding【4:9†source】.

4. **Practice**: Teachers provide regular opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their understanding. This can involve tasks like answering exam questions, solving problems, or performing skills【4:10†source】.

5. **Feedback**: Teachers offer regular, timely feedback during lessons and through written methods. Feedback focuses on student progress, addressing misconceptions, and providing guidance on how to improve. Students engage with this feedback during dedicated Student Response Time (SRT) activities【4:11†source】.
