What I can do
The Five Pillars of Teaching and Learning at Outwood Grange Academies Trust are designed to enhance effective teaching and support students' learning and self-regulation. Here they are:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers clearly communicate to students what they are learning in their lessons and why they are learning it. They share and review subject learning journeys with students.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Regular review of previously learned material to ensure students remember key information from prior lessons.
3. **New Information**: Introduction and modeling of new learning in lessons. This involves linking new information to a topic question shared at the beginning of the lesson, using a variety of activities to develop students’ understanding.
4. **Practice**: Providing regular opportunities for students to practice, apply, and consolidate their understanding within the lesson. This could involve answering exam questions, solving problems, performing experiments, writing essays, or honing practical skills.
5. **Feedback**: Offering regular and timely feedback both during lessons and in written form. Feedback focuses on student performance, addresses misconceptions, and provides guidance for further development. Students are encouraged to engage with feedback during dedicated Student Response Time activities【4:0†source】.
