MathsHOD:

Whilst I am here I thought I'd mention that, as I understand it, TeachersTV isn't dead it's now just a web based resource as opposed to sitting on Freeview etc.

I liked a small amount of things that appeared on teachers TV but feel they didnt do themselves any favours with the 'going from good to outstanding'

IIRC it went along the lines of

"I have been killing myself for 3 weeks to get an outstanding in this lesson I am planning day and night...I have gone to school especially early to set all my activities for this lesson. I hope I get my outstanding, I think I have worked so hard for this"

I sat thinking "what about your other 59 lessons during this 3 week period of fabrication?"

Suprisingly all the BS pedgogy trends were shoe-horned into a circus classroom much like those suggested in this thread

"I deserve to go home and have a wind down"

...What about day in day out teaching my dear?

Anyway.....

1. Sustainable
2. Progressive
3. Approrpiate and not edutainment
4. Mutually advances teacher and pupil

I could not agree more Beatmale.

 Day in Day out performance is what matters.

Turning it on for the cameras, Ofsted or being able to write about doesnt.

Very true. Good day in and day out leads to outstanding results.
