What I can do

The Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning approach from the Outwood Grange Academies Trust are:

1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers clearly share with students what they are learning in their lesson and why they are learning it. Teachers share and review subject learning journeys with their students【4:0†source】.

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

3. **New Information**: Teachers introduce and model new learning in lessons, which are linked to the topic question shared with students at the start of their lesson. A variety of activities are devised to enable students to develop their new understanding【4:8†source】.

4. **Practice**: Teachers devise regular opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their understanding during the lesson. This could involve answering an exam question, solving problems, conducting an experiment, writing an essay, or performing a skill in a practical subject【4:8†source】.

5. **Feedback**: Teachers provide regular, timely feedback during lessons and through written comments. Feedback focuses on how well students are doing, addresses misconceptions, and gives clear guidance on how to develop further. Students are encouraged to engage with all feedback in dedicated Student Response Time (SRT) activities【4:8†source】.

These pillars guide teachers in creating structured and effective lesson plans while fostering active student engagement in learning.
