Learning Walk/ Teacher Development Checklists!

These comprehensive checklists have been created to aid school leaders when performing learning walks with a particular focus e.g. questioning, differentiation, etc. Clearly structured and organised, they present a central idea surrounded by a breakdown of a number of its key components.

For the user, this layout provides a simple reference list of each of the desirable skills, categorised appropriately. The checklists also provide an alternative to regular feedback methods, which often focus too heavily on the standard or ‘judgement’, as opposed to being a developmental tool.

Alternatively, these are really handy for teachers looking to develop their practice in the key teaching areas listed below. Included in the pack are checklists for:
-Questioning
-Differentiation
-Utilising Resources (including support staff)
-Engagement
-Building Literacy Skills
-Planning and Expectations
-Building Learning Power
-A blank template for you to design your own based upon your own focus

Note: The checklists are provided as both PDFs (for formatting stability) and Word (so that you can edit them easily) - the Word versions are in the zipfile.

Many Thanks
