We use explanation, demonstration, discussion and practice to help pupils move from an initial idea towards independent understanding.

We notice differences in readiness and adjust tasks so that additional support and greater challenge both remain possible.

We check learning through pupils’ talk, written work and practical responses, using the findings to plan the next lesson.

We develop consistent classroom routines and communicate useful information about progress with colleagues and families.
