Developing A Professional Culture
Leaving lesson grades behind
1. Overview of the leadership & management
2. What it is like in practice
Context
Special Measures• Below floor achievement and attainment
• Typically poor quality of teaching
• Little innovation – hardly ever observing each other
• No culture of sharing – working in isolation
• No conversations about learning
• No analysis of teaching – non judgemental data
Quality of teaching
InadequateSatisfactoryGoodOutstanding
What did we do?
• Appointed an Iris Lead teacher
• Developed role to become AHT for Appraisal & CPD
• Set SIP targets for use of the camera
• Embedded Iris with Appraisal targets
Iris Impact
• Inadequate teaching eradicated
• Needed to move satisfactory to good
• Wanted outstanding aspects to become typically outstanding overtime
Context
Broadford Primary is an exciting and dynamic place to
learn
Ofsted• Teaching across the school, from the
Nursery to Year 6, has a significant impact on learning
• Pupils say they love coming to school because lessons are challenging and fun
• Teaching has improved significantly since the last inspection because the headteacher has established very high expectations for both staff and pupils
Lesson Grades• Time between observations too long
• High stakes grading – became about the lesson, not learning over time
• Insufficient development for all teachers
• Small action points – marginal gains
• Build a professional culture
What next?Ensure that teachers consistently teach outstanding lessons by sharing excellent practice to help each other refine their performance and increase their already high levels of achievement in reading,
writing and mathematics.
Professional Culture
My role

accountability

• Built up culture of sharing, talking about teaching, always looking for tweaks
• Empowered teachers to take ownership of development
JLT• 22 staff – 30% UPS & M6 teachers

Impact
Self PerceptionTeacher Talk:“I had always been having feedback that I talked too much in my lessons. Each time I felt I had acted on it, only to be given the same targets. Then I watched myself on the video. I couldn’t believe it… I didn’t shut up. Even my daughter said how much I was talking.”
Good to GreatMeasuring pupil activity:“In our writing starters I always thought that the ratio of my input to pupil activity was 10:90
When I used the counters I found that I was leading as much as 40% of the session – feedback needed to be much snappier”
Proactive
“There have been times when I have forgotten to book the Iris camera… so I get me TA to video me with the iPad. I can then share these sessions with my coach and look at specific aspects of my teaching”
Other usesRoom layout and pupil choice:“In the mornings we didn’t appreciate how the children access the different activities. Seeing how they tended to behave led us to change the layout of resources and promote different experiences.”
