- To support school leadership teams in reviewing Great Teaching across their setting
- To have an overview of the Great Teaching audit tool and maximise its impact
- To identify strengths and areas for development
- To have access to a package of Great Teaching courses which enable school leadership teams to lead 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)

"Inspectors will consider the extent to which: leaders assure themselves that the curriculum is taught well." Ofsted Inspection Toolkit p19

High-quality teaching and learning improves the outcomes and achievement for ALL pupils.
This package enables two leaders from each school to evaluate teaching in their setting and identify areas for development. These leaders will then be able to attend a training course in the areas identified for improvement, receiving up-to-date evidence-informed training so that they can train colleagues back in school.

This well-received package of training from the Great Teaching Team allows 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, plus places on the termly Great Teaching Networks:

Improving Behaviour for Learning
Metacognition in Practice
Making the Most of the Great Teaching Toolkit
