What is this course about?

Checking for understanding is only one-half of the story. Once we have the in-class data from our students, what do we do with it? In this workshop, we examine my model for responsive teaching, focusing on high-value teacher actions in three common scenarios: most students get it, some students get it, and very few students get it.

Frequently asked questions

Who is the course for?

All the examples I use are from the world of maths. I am confident the strategies transfer to upper primary. I have delivered this CPD many times whole-school, but teachers of other subjects will need to think hard about how to adapt the strategies.

Can I share this course with my colleagues

After you purchase this course, you can show the videos to colleagues as part of a whole school CPD session or a departmental meeting.

You are not allowed to share the videos to colleagues outside of your school.

Do I need to prepare anything in advance?

  1. Everyone will need something to write on, either paper or a mini-whiteboard.

  2. You may wish to print a copy of the prioritisation template in the first section for each person, or they can sketch it themselves.

  3. Colleagues will have lots of opportunities to discuss ideas, so please ensure the seating arrangements facilitate this.

Where can I find the research and resources mentioned in the course?

I will share a link at the end of course showing where you and your colleagues can access all the relevant research and resources

Can I pay via invoice?

The easiest way to pay is online. The service accepts all major cards as well as PayPal. Paying this way gives you immediate access to the course, and you can access a VAT receipt by clicking on your account profile.

But if you need to pay via invoice, then no problem!  Just send an email to mrbartonmaths@gmail.com with details of:

1. The email addresses of the person(s) taking the course

2. Your school name and address

3. Who to email to invoice to

Then I will send you an invoice and register your colleagues for the course.
