Spacing grade-level retrieval practice and application helps students embed key ideas and can improve transfer to novel contexts. Longer Cadence Reviews are the perfect vehicle for this type of practice but creating such reviews can take time. Come along to learn how to utilise Elastik and your student data to make the most of your reviews.

Governments have dramatically underestimated what it takes to plan high-quality lessons every day. Grattan’s survey of 2,243 teachers and school leaders shows that many teachers are planning alone, and buckling under the weight of this near-impossible task. But it needn’t be this way. Grattan visited five schools which have adopted whole-school planning approaches. Come along to hear how they did it, and how their students and teachers are benefitting.

This webinar will be co-hosted by Teach Well and Amy Haywood, the Deputy Program Director of Grattan’s Education Program. Before working at Grattan, Amy was a secondary school English teacher and brings this practical experience to her work as an education policy researcher. She has been the author on several Grattan reports including Ending the Lesson Lottery: How to improve curriculum planning in schools, How to implement a whole-school curriculum approach: A guide for principals, and The Reading Guarantee: How to give every child the best chance of success.

Comparative judgement is a process where judges compare two responses and decide which is better. Research has shown the process to be as reliable as double marking, but much quicker. In this webinar Jeanette Breen will provide an introduction to No More Marking and the use of comparative judgements to reduce teachers’ marking load. This includes a demonstration involving children’s writing. Jeanette will also be discussing the next No More Marking Australian project launching in February 2024 and answering questions about comparative judgement.
