Mastery Readiness
Mastery Readiness is a one year programme of workshops and school visits, designed for schools who haven’t yet accessed the Teaching for Mastery Programme. Teachers in participating schools receive bespoke support working towards an action plan drawn up by school leaders in conjunction with their Mastery Readiness Lead. Schools participating in the Mastery Readiness Programme will be given priority when applying to join a TRG (Mastery Work Group) in the following year. If you are interested in joining the Mastery Readiness Programme in 2019/2020, please contact Kirsty Pettinger (Primary Mastery Lead).
Primary teachers visit Shanghai on Exchange Programme 2019/20
Jon and Rachel flew to Shanghai on Saturday to start their 10 day exchange visit and here they are meeting their partner teachers before visiting their schools and observing Teaching for Mastery in action.
A Shanghai classroom, all classrooms have seating and a door at the back of the room so teachers can drop in and observe lessons without disturbing the class.
For the return leg, Shanghai teachers will be in South Green Primary in Billericay in March 2020. More details of the showcases where you can come and observe a lesson will follow here on our site in the New Year.
