Planning and delivering an ‘Outstanding' lesson In this session, we will: What do these things look like practically between good and outstanding? Improve confidence in planning for a ‘Outstanding' lesson in principle.

What are challenging objectives and how are they incorporated into the lesson? How do I plan for 'engagement'? How do I know, throughout the lesson, if the students are making progress? How am I encouraging good behaviour for learning? (besides planning for a good lesson) How am I ensuring that I am taking into account the specific needs of my students so that they can all make as much progress as possible? In your groups, focus on your key area and discuss the opportunities you have (or could have) included for these things in a recent lesson. Be prepared to feedback your ideas.
