Since the new Ofsted Inspection Framework, there’s been so much talk about the ‘golden thread’ of inclusion. It got us thinking. The pandemic prompted a significant shift in how we think, work and lead. BUT, so much of what we do in schools day in, day out, IS inclusion. Here’s our @researchED1 presentation, The Inclusion Shift, (but bloggerised) mapping out our journey - the highs and the lows! We hope you enjoy it.

Following the unexpected, yet brilliant, start to our training session (see previous post 🤣), we did eventually get down to business! Anna and I have been exploring newer podcasts that get into the granular detail of teaching and learning as we move towards cycles of team coaching. This week, @Mr_Raichura and @NeenaSharma555’s new series, Operation Education, provided just the snippets of explanation we wanted teachers to discuss. Techniques were then rehearsed (not role-played!) and updates made to our agreed Consistencies document. This session’s focus: double-checking our Signal–Pause–Insist routines and nailing down how we front-load expectations for cleaning MWBs (we know you love FLMOP @adamboxer1) within our Show Me Boards routine. One simple bit of shared language we all agreed on: “When I say go and not before…”Thanks Pritesh 🙂 Next up: putting it into practice, A | D | A | P | T for age and phase but avoiding those lethal mutations! @WALKTHRUs_5 @MattTeachCoach - then refine. More on this next week. Happy Thursday everyone! Cass
