Long Term and Short Term goals

Long Term and Short Term goals or learning intentions are displayed in every lesson.

This was consistent in every classroom visited. Rather like this idea as it fits nicely with Nuthalls and Perkins assertions that learning best takes place when it is connected to bigger “problems/ questions” and then broken down into smaller components. Simple structure complex results.  

This is also reflected in the multiple assessment of each Standardised outcome. The school stated that they will not report back on student learning if they have only been assessed on an outcome once. This was one of several references to learning taking over time.
