What I can do

The Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning, as outlined in the document, are designed to enhance effective teaching and support students' learning and self-regulation. Here are the five key elements of this framework:

1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers clearly share with students what they are learning in their lesson and why they are learning it. This includes sharing and reviewing subject learning journeys with 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 clearly introduce and model new learning in lessons. This is linked to the topic question shared with students at the start of their lesson, using a variety of activities to help students develop their new understanding【4:8†source】.

4. **Practice**: Teachers devise regular opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their understanding during lessons. This can include answering exam questions, solving problems, carrying out experiments, writing essays, or performing skills in practical subjects【4:8†source】.

5. **Feedback**: Teachers provide regular, timely feedback both during lessons and through written feedback. This 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 are aimed at making students active partners in their learning and support a comprehensive approach to effective teaching and learning.
