LearningShared
Alex Tomkins raises some challenging questions in this exploration of teacher led inquiry in Social Emotional & Mental Health (SEMH). SEMH is now a key part of curriculum for children with SEN, yet we do have a strong background in this area. It’s certainly not a strong pedagogy. Alex also considers the opportunities presented by current circumstances to reflect on how inquiry can become a more significant & ubiquitous feature of formative assessment systems.Visit episode webpage for this & video slidesho

In a conversation that was recorded on 1st May 2020, Barry and Matthew reflected on the origins of the Think Piece and Matthew, who is the Principal at Baxter College, a mainstream secondary school, shared his thinking behind the 5 levers and how he and his team have been thinking about how they can be applied to support the recovery process at Baxter College.
