The Beckfoot Way
Our T&L policy, The Beckfoot Way, has been built to provide the foundations for great teaching and learning and ensure 'Limitless Possibilities for All'. The consistency it provides supports our students as they move from classroom to classroom, subject to subject, teacher to teacher. The freedom it allows enables our teachers to build upon these foundations in the way that works for them, in their subject, with their students.
It includes:
- Vulnerable Learners focus: Know your students; Prioritise and Additionality; Literacy for all; Close Collaboration.
- Principles: Routines, Scaffolding, Modelling, Learning Checks, Questioning, and Practice.
- Practices: Starts & Ends of Excellence; The Big Picture; I do - We do - You do; Everyone Think - Discuss - Write; DNA.
- Systems: Knowledge Organisers and Retrieval Practice; Knowledgeable and Expert Learners Framework inc. Home Learning; Assessment, Marking and Feedback.
