Pedagogy

Developing the craft of teaching.

Teacher practice is the number one factor in how well children do at school.

Mastering the craft of teaching and pedagogy are as vital as a well-planned sequenced curriculum. Transferring the ‘what’ to the ‘how’ so that students are able to know more and remember more.

Cognitive science has shown us how students learn, and with this knowledge, teachers’ approaches to transferring knowledge to students can be adapted to deliver the best results in the classroom.

Rooted in cognitive science, a systematic approach to breaking down teaching techniques with a shared understanding of purpose and language will enable teachers to better adapt their craft to meet the needs of all learners.

We have partnered with WalkThrus Intl. to give teachers access to the full toolkit of resources and step-by-step guides to support the development of pedagogical knowledge and techniques.

Supporting teachers to be the best.

  • We have partnered with Tom Sherrington and the WALKTHRUs team as we believe that a systematic approach to breaking down teaching techniques, rooted in cognitive science, with a shared understanding of purpose and language will enable teachers to better adapt their craft.
  • As a HEP member school, you can subscribe to the full WALKTHRUs packages and programmes at a heavily discounted and subsidised rate.
  • We have experts on hand to support schools in implementation.

WALKTHRUs has been instrumental in breathing new life into our program of professional development. We love the clarity and structure it provides. Our teachers have started to invite leaders into their classrooms to see how they have developed the pedagogy under focus and the positive impact on the learning.

WALKTHRUs has been invaluable as a tool to help us ensure all teachers are singing from the same hymn sheet. It has helped create a shared language and dialogue that ensures all conversations are linked back to pedagogy and teaching and there is complete clarity about expectations.

WALKTHRUs is a game changing, visual toolkit that as a school we use to support our school CPD offer. It has helped us structure a comprehensive, low stakes training programme using effective research based strategies- no gimmicks, no fads!
