Module 2 – Targeting support and intervention

Introduction

 

Start this module by spending a few minutes discussing or thinking about your experience of targeting support and intervention for transfers and transitions.

Which of these seem most familiar?:

1. I didn’t have enough information to be confident about planning appropriately.
2. It’s very difficult when most of the class need individual support.
3. Support for underperforming groups is better in some subject areas than others.
4. We have a good system in place to recognise those who need intervention, it starts with a good relationship with the primary schools.
5. Some of the pupils arrive with a good understanding of how well they are doing and what they need to do to improve.
6. We have such a range of abilities, it’s not easy identifying those most at risk of underperforming.

In this module you’ll discover how targeted support and intervention are used to ensure that:

• All teachers are aware of individual pupils’ learning needs at the start of the year and set challenging learning targets.
• Early in Year 7, pupils know about their learning strengths and the aspect they are trying to improve.
• All pupils feel their work is valued and are aware of the progress they are making.
• Pupils are responsive and enquiring in their learning.

Now move on to Underperformance.
