Teacher CPD Package: Effective Feedback

Feedback is continually reported to have significant impact on student progress.

This hour-long interactive CPD session aims to provide staff with a better understanding on how to make their feedback to students more effective. There is also guidance on how to construct and use comment banks to provide students with better quality feedback whilst also reducing teacher workload.

There are a number of ideas and activities that you may wish to use or adapt during your CPD session to suit the needs of your own staff and school. I have included a resource booklet that includes top tips for effective feedback and example feedback statements to allow staff get started on writing their own comment banks more easily.

I have included three of my articles taken from a five-part series previously published in Sec Ed, based on the development of this CPD session. The information should provide some relevant background reading to aid in your delivery of your CPD session.

Resources needed for this CPD session:
• Computer / Projector
• Effective feedback booklet (included)
• Pens & Paper
• Feedback cards (included)
• Evaluation form (included)
• *You may wish to invite teachers to bring in a sample of marked work to evaluate or a sample of work to mark.
