Management Development Programme - Enginuity
REFLECTION
This document was given out at the training, and will prove to be a very powerful document for the PFD team. I was particularly interested in the finding on page 5, fifth bullet point, which states:
"Teachers of courses with high retention and achievement have a relatively negative view of 16-19 year old students' abilities, but make every effort to motivate, inspire and support them"
This was explained as this: regardless of the fact that students' abilities are declining (seemingly), good teachers recognise this, don't moan, but are proactive and adaptive to students' needs.
The aspects that we shall share with PFD are around team work. At present, there is a resistance to make time to work together (the evenings are the only free times) and this resistance could jeapordise the team from maturing in terms of shared schemes of work, quality etc. We will design an activity with the team which will get them to scrutinise the report and guage themselves against it.
Following lunch, we went into the Enginuity room; here are colleagues 'having a go':
