Training
Teachers are responsible for the learning of all children and young people in their class.
- Staff take the time to get to know children. For example: what they like doing, what is important to them, what they feel or think about aspects of learning, and what they feel they need help with etc.
- Staff share good practices.
- Staff are proactive in finding out what other services or agencies are involved with children and what they are saying or recommending.
- Staff have opportunities to engage with relevant continuing professional development around children’s needs and approaches to helpfully address them.
- Staff delivering interventions and providing support in the classroom follow programmes closely and ensure that their classroom support is in line with best practice guidance.
- Staff are effective in their approach to communication, monitoring and information-sharing in relation to specific and general aspects of progress.
- Staff are always working towards developing self-efficacy and, eventually, independence for children.
- Staff are solution focussed and communicate encouragement and positivity in their work with children.
- Staff provide plentiful specific and relevant feedback to build a positive growth mindset for the child.
