  1. Stretch and Challenge

  2. What can you do to stretch and challenge our children?

  3. T&L Hubs- The set up • There are 5 calendared Teaching and Learning meetings this academic year. These involve all staff, grouped into hubs, cross curricular and cross phase who meet regarding a specific area of pedagogy – Stretch and challenge!! • The idea behind this is that CPD is more valuable if concentrated on one area of specific practice that is revisited over a longer period of time. • There is also the opportunity for staff to engage in action based research with their colleagues at SRS and also across partnership schools. • You will work in your hub teams for the duration of the year to develop the focus area across the school.

  5. Stretch and Challenge aspirations… • Class based - teacher driven challenge to a targeted group in class. • Peer support sessions across phases – child ownership. • Debating – developing speaking and oracy.

  6. Before next time… • In your pair decide when you will observe one another during WOW week, (22/9 - 3/10). • Make it clear which group you are focusing your stretch and challenge on and decide how you will do this. • Observe your peer and complete the observation proforma. • Be prepared to feedback at our next meeting, (11/11).
