We have achieved a huge amount and I, agreed with the team, have kept a record of our progress to celebrate and share with others. I discussed with the leadership of the school to shift from individual records to a team approach, as their goal is to build a collaborative approach. However, the experience has not been inclusive as I want or needs to be.
With a new co-leader, I have take the opportunity, to ensure Teaching as Inquiry is on the agenda every week. Grant will lead nuts and bolts etc, and I will focus on the teaching as inquiry. I will use this opportunity as a 'cycle of sharing and revision (which) will lead to a common language about the direction, deeper understanding and commitment' to our goal. I have asked them to collect student voice and add to the document with mixed success. I am hoping this cycle will change this.
We are looking to add a more accountability aspect to the team meetings where, each week, they will be expected to bring and share aspects of learning linked to a 'short' goals which is linked to our overall goal.
I am also looking to share snippets of professional reading to help develop the team. The progressional reading will be linked to our current focus of creating engagement through effective feedback.
