This is my maths teacher. He taught me in Year 7 & 8. Such a wonderful man! His classroom door was always open every lunchtime, and there were times when he would give us a pound or two so that we could get some lunch.

Direct instruction is joyful & leads pupils to success. Here is a *clip* where I use high frequency & high participation questioning in 3 phases:
1. Check for listening
2. Rehearsal
3. Check for understanding
Established routines: all hands up, turn & talk, SLANT & ruler reading

Now that GCSE results have landed and the data is being crunched, it’s worth mentioning that progress scores for individual classes (based on whatever proxy baseline) shouldn’t be used, on their own, to judge teacher effectiveness 1/6
