Forum 3 - Word to the wise - Using evidence informed and research based decisions to inform CPD
Thank you for engaging in the forum today. I hope it was useful. Gap tasks: READ and LEARN 1. Explore the TDT's Teaching, Learning and Leadership research data base and Mr. Barton's research summary web page. Click here and here for the gold! 2. Have a look at the EXPLORE implementation checklist for leaders. What two questions could your leaders benefit from when exploring new approaches? SHARE the knowledge 3. Share your findings/ insights and take-aways from this forum with your SLT/ staff. COMMIT to an action 4. Decide on one action you can take to further spread the culture of reading around research amongst your staff (leaders, teachers, support staff and teams) e.g. A Teaching and Learning Bulletin Exploring disciplined enquiry Signposting middle/ subject leaders to books, publications, podcasts Protecting time for more reading in CPD sessions Planning a CPD library Raising the profile - CPD display in the staff room.
