*NEW* Episode 2 of Operation Education is here! We explore moving classes from ‘compliance’ to ‘buy-in’. We zoom into the nitty gritty, concrete actions teachers can try the next time they’re in the classroom. Let us know your thoughts: how do you get from compliance to buy-in?

Do we feel uncomfortable with the word ‘authority’ in our schools? What might the consequences of this be? Is the word misunderstood? Listen to the full first episode of my brand new podcast, Operation Education, on your favourite podcast platforms. Link below.

‘I say, you say’ and ‘choral response’ are two of the simplest but most powerful strategies that can transform energy & participation in lessons. Here’s an article I’ve written for @RoySocChem EiC magazine that explains how & when to use them.

This September, if you are looking to improve your classroom practice, one of the highest-leverage but underused strategies to try is HIGH-FREQUENCY questioning. Not note-taking, not copying definitions, not retrieval starters. What do I mean? 1/

Perhaps these politicians like our Education Secretary would like to visit a school like Michaela where behaviour is exemplary?
They might learn something. Over a thousand guests to the school last year were open-minded enough to come.
Let’s see if the politicians are interested.
‘Jason Elsom, chief executive of Parentkind, a charity which represents the voice of parents, said “a clampdown on behaviour is long overdue”.’
A zero-tolerance approach to poor behaviour must be adopted, and schools should be empowered to take all necessary measures to ensure exemplary conduct. This includes confronting parents and activists who reject adult authority and discipline, and who promote misguided approaches such as trauma-informed practice and restorative justice as effective solutions to behavioural issues.
