We believe passionately that all learners deserve the best experience of teaching and learning whilst they are with us  and we are committed to sharing good practice amongst all our teams; the strongest teams are those that learn from each other and we are always excited by the wide range of skills and knoweldge our teachers, trainers and coaches bring to the college.
We will start by  looking at our shared vision and standards for teaching, learning and assessment, followed by a more detailed explaination of the TLA standards that we all work towards, a discussion about our supportive approach to observation and some TLA ideas thrown in.

Take a look at the quality team - a good looking bunch, I'm sure you will agree!  All ready and looking forward making sure that you feel supported and have everything you need to do your job.

Here's a quick video

As a group of people, whether staff or learners, we are working towards the best that we can be. Here are some of the priority area for the college for 2019/20. In order to achieve these goals, we work to a set of standards which outline best practice for teaching at LCC. Take a look at them before moving to the next slides.

Standard 1.1:  What paper work do I need?

At LCC you only need two pieces of paperwork: planning and tracking.
Planning: We call our planning document a scheme of learning (SOL). It  is designed to cover a block of learning of appoximately 5-6 weeks. There are no lesson plans but the SOL is structured so that the flow and sequence of a lesson is evident, information about personalised learning is at hand and connections made to the wider learning experience; for example, employability, English and Maths, independent learning and EDI etc. Although we only expect to see planning for 6 week blocks, it is important that you are clear where that block of learning sits within the sequence of the teaching learning and assessment for your course (TLA).

Barrak Obama once said 'if you're walking down the right path...eventually you'll make progress.' Noble words but how are learners going to know where they are the direction they should take? Effective tracking enables you to make sure that students are challenged and progressing. If you understand where they are on their learning journey, then you will be able to give good quality feedback.
At LCC we use the systems Promonitor and Prosolution as our global tracking method. This records predicted grades and monitors progress through modules and weighted assignments. It is critical that this information is accurate and up-to-date. To support you in this we have Markbook Masters on every campus to help you set up your class and course tracking. If you can't find a MM in your area then contact the Grand Master ;) Adam Ryding (adam.ryding@leedscitycollege.ac.uk)
Check with your programme manager with regards to local tracking as it may be that they already have a system in place for more regular monitoring of students. ,

So how can we identify what we mean by high expectations and what will this mean for personalised learning for students. Love it or hate it; Blooms charts will help you consider the range and levels of skills and knowledge your learners need to aquire. It will also help you to push learners out of their comfort zones. The Dreyfuss Model is another method of identifying how learners are progressing. Neither one of these methods are prescribed by LCC but you will find them helpful when planning your lessons and sequences of learning.

Blooms chart is excellent for helping you develop learning intentions as well as developing challenge activities and for something different look at the Dreyfuss Model

Watch the video and then think about your own teaching:

How could each of the standards, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 be met in your lessons?

Think about your key learning activities, how might you design activities which progress learning?

Start to think about how you are going to check that learners have progressed.

There is definitely a lot to think about when you are planning and teaching a lesson but it is good to remember that for the majority of teachers a lot of these aspects of teaching and learning are second nature. You will find information on standards 5, 6 and 7attached to the proforma of the SOL which you will recieve shortly. If you have any questions about them or any other aspect of the standards, please do not hesitate to contact me or the advanced practitioner in residence at your campus.

Pause and think for a moment:
What do we need to consider when planning a lesson?
How can you challenge your learners and put them out of their comfort zone?
Are all your leaning activities differentiated?
Let's talk about planning

I realise there is a lot of information here but the APs have produced a wealth of resources to support you. They can be found on:
Google classroom: xaucp
On G+
TLA Web Page
There are just a few more things to go through. I would like to introduce you to our TEL (technology in education and learning) and the quality team. Cassie will explain the quality processes we use at LCC and Iain will reveal the wealth of resources and support for independant learning and technology.
