What you will learn

Observation is the bane of teachers’ lives.

The whole system is designed to put fear into the hearts and minds of teachers who are working to achieve the best they can for their students. Observation and feedback has not really been challenged as a system since its inception but now may be the time to do just that. Let’s look at the reasons, the processes, the outcomes and the people involved with this practice.

This workshop will try to dismantle the old habits arguing that for observation and feedback to be of any use, we must re-evaluate what we do, what we expect and what we value.
