2017 Professional Learning for our Teachers

This year we enter Phase 2 of our New Focus on Reading initiative and continue to train our Early Years teachers in L3. Since 2015 we have been profoundly changing the way we teach reading at Ebenezer. The teaching and learning is much more explicit (open and clear) and focused on engendering a love of reading in your children that may or may not already be there. We will focus this year on including a focus on writing (we want our students to write clearly and concisely ‘for the reader') and building our capacity to teach numeracy in a more systematic and explicit way. Our journey to improve practice never ends and the staff keep enjoying the opportunity to talk deeply about classroom practice. (I'm not kidding, they really enjoy it, even on a Tuesday afternoon after a busy day).

 

The results of our labours – students at Ebenezer are able to engage deeply in literature together.
