Teaching & Learning topics
Coaching principles for pupils. Learning beyond the classroom — how a coaching stance changes how children think about their own work.
Metacognition. What it looks like in the classroom, and how small changes to planning can transform learning for every pupil.
Pedagogy. What is pedagogy? How do we keep pedagogical principles at the heart of practice when the workload pushes everything else?
Adaptive teaching. What it is, why it matters, and how to do it without doubling preparation time.
Questioning skills. Asking the right question at the right time can create a lifelong memory. The craft of questioning, broken down and practised.
English — reading and writing. Everything from Talk-for-Writing implementation to building a coherent reading culture across phases.
Diverse curriculum design. Building a curriculum that reflects the changing landscape — drawing on the work I led at my own school to embed curriculum diversity.
Format
Single-session workshops, half-day intensives, full-day INSETs, or year-long support programmes — usually a mix. Most schools start with a scoping conversation and a half-day audit before committing to a longer programme.
