Teaching and Learning

The Teaching and Learning page has been added following the first Parents Information Evening 'How we learn and Memory' The session on Monday 29th January 2018 was attended by approximately 100 parents across all year groups. We were delighted to see so many people and the feedback was very encouraging.

The Powerpoint from the evening can be found from this link 'How we learn and memory', As the presentation was accompanied by a talk, not all of the slides will be self-explanatory but much of the information is easy to access.

During the feedback, it was asked if we could provide some titles, references or website that parents might be able to help their daughters with the specifics of their subjects. This suggestion has been forwarded to Curriculum Leaders to up date the VLE where possible.

Hopefully, we will provide more information evenings in the future to help parents to suport their daughters and to understand the changes in approach to learning that have happened in recent years. Suggestions might be Metacognition-how thinking about how we think can have a significant impact on our learning, and also, Assessment- how we research is changing how staff assess pupils progress and why there are changes to reporting.
