Session 3 - Exit Points (Sarah Brown)
Our guest speaker, Sarah Brown (Director of Curriculum Development for the International Primary Curriculum) delivered an hour long workshop that looked at the importance of understanding what learning looks like within a classroom context. The delegates were asked to consider three aspects of learning - knowledge, skills and understanding - and to think about whether the children (or indeed the teachers themselves) would be able to identify at which point during a lesson the focus is on knowledge or skills or is allowing for understanding to develop.
Sarah also posed the question "What would your perfect school be like..?" - to which there were some very creative responses!
