PPA Record of Discussion template

A simple, single page template to make note of team discussions during PPA sessions. In our school, our LSAs join teachers for part of their weekly PPA time and I have found this a useful tool to monitor how this time is being used and the impact it has on planning and preparation to meet pupils’ needs. Effective dialogue between teachers and LSAs during PPA time allows for joint working and clear understanding between all professionals working with children within the classroom. Using this template also means that any staff who are absent from discussions can receive a copy of the notes so that they too have an understanding of what is happening in the week ahead.
