Professional Development for Quality Teaching

How a maths department transformed KS3 teaching by incorporating Assessing Pupils' Progress (APP) throughout the new curriculum.

Through two lessons on angles, the maths department at Plantsbrook School, headed by Tom Pole, shows how its redesigned KS3 curriculum delivers APP evidence.

Tom uses personally designed assessment diagrams to record observations made during the lessons, and shows how peer assessment can help with evidence collection.

Finally, teacher Stuart McAusland shows how his Year 7 class peer assesses homework about sequences.
