The programme is proven to work best for teachers who have the capacity to reflect upon and improve their own practice. We provide the support of outstanding facilitators, observation of excellent classroom practice, research materials, and practical resources which prompt sustainable change. There is a clear focus on the key principles which underpin effective teaching to improve student outcomes, alongside the development of sustainable improvement. Who is it for? Delegates may already be good practitioners who want to move their teaching on to the next level or they may be less confident practitioners who are in need of guidance and support to improve their practice. The programme has proven highly successful with a wide range of teachers at varying stages of their career from NQT onwards. Participants will: • Receive guided instruction on how to fine tune key areas of Teaching and Learning such as: - the expert’s classroom - explaining - questioning - differentiation - modelling - practice - feedback • Observe outstanding practitioners in their classrooms • Complete gap tasks between sessions • Reflect upon and discuss their current practice in order to develop and improve their effectiveness in the classroom • Receive practical advice on how to improve • Read and research the theory behind the key elements of the programme • Have access to mentoring by a middle/senior leader in their own school between sessions • Complete a ‘teaching challenge’ which demonstrates the progress made in one or more of the key areas 4 “Led by two helpful and inspiring teachers.” - 2019 delegate The launch will be a whole day event held at Carlton Junior Academy.

  • Year 6 Transition Booklet 2020
    Year 6 Transition Booklet 2020 Welcome FROM THE HEADTEACHER Firstly, thank you for choosing South Nottinghamshire Academy for your child's secondary education. As a parent, I know the importance of making the right decision on behalf of our children and I can assure you that we will never take this for granted. We believe that all students have a right to attend a school that is ambitious for them and will strive to ensure they achieve the very best that they can. Our ethos is built around ‘Pushing our boundaries to achieve more’ which is underpinned with the highest expectations of what each student is capable of achieving. We passionately believe that in order for students to reach their academic potential, they must experience the highest levels of individual care, guidance and support. Within a welcoming and supportive environment, we continue to provide a stimulating and engaging education where all students can flourish and succeed. In 2019, SNA students once again secured some spectacular outcomes and the Academy secured very strong GCSE results. Our Progress 8 score was +0.32 which means that all of our students do nearly a third of a grade better in all of their subjects than similar students at other schools. 83% of students achieved the Basics 4+ (English and Maths at grade 4) and 60% achieved Basic 5+ (English and Maths at grade 5). Equally as successful, at A Level, 82% of students gained A* -C grades and 64% gained A*-B grades. As a consequence, South Nottinghamshire Academy was found to be among the best performing non - selective secondary schools in the country, receiving two awards for being in the top 10% nationally for attainment and for being in DfE Band 2 for student progress at key stage 4 (the awards are based on 2019 data provided by the Department for Education and Ofsted, and for the school’s commitment to collaboration, analysed by SSAT, the Schools, Students and Teachers Network).
