Course Aims:
- To support school leadership teams in reviewing Great Teaching across their setting
- To identify strengths and areas for development
- To have access to a package of Great Teaching courses to enable school leadership teams to support whole school development in teaching and learning. This will include access to prepared training resources which can be delivered back in school (relevant to the courses attended as a result of the audit).

"The best available evidence indicates that great teaching is the most important lever schools have to improve pupil attainment. Ensuring every teacher is supported in delivering high-quality teaching is essential to achieving the best outcomes for all pupils, particularly the most disadvantaged among them." (EEF - High Quality Teaching -Maximising Learning)

This well-received package of training from the Great Teaching Team will allow schools two places at the following:
Reflecting on Classroom Practice - A full day's course which leads colleagues through the Reflecting on Classroom Practice Audit Tool, highlighting key messages for consideration and allowing the Headteacher, and a Teaching and Learning Lead, to audit current practice in their school. From this, the school will identify the equivalent of two further full day courses to attend (again, the Headteacher and Teaching and Learning Lead) from the following:

Improving Behaviour for Learning
New: Metacognition - The Next Level
New: Making the Most of the Great Teaching Toolkit
From Passive to Active Learning
Adaptive & Responsive Teaching
Managing Cognitive Load
New: Identifying Gaps in Knowledge & Learning
New: Cognitive Science - Practical Implications
New: Questioning - the Key to Formative Assessment
Retrieval
Explicit Teaching & Modelling
Scaffolding Learning for Children with SEND in Mainstream

In addition to this, schools will be given one place on the Great Teaching Networks and one place on any Bitesize courses.

Following each full or half day course attended, the school will receive a bespoke training package which the Headteacher and Teaching and Learning Lead can then use to lead training back in school.

The whole package (including places for two delegates per school) is £950.
