It's not at all limited to a specific subject (effort and understanding are universal to all subjects), it just needs clarity about what you're looking for and therefore how to judge understanding in your subject.Kev Listerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02417437251161335205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2254885666790498217.post-88775629104781265882015-11-11T12:33:38.439+00:002015-11-11T12:33:38.439+00:00Hi has anyone had much success in English with thi...Hi has anyone had much success in English with this?

I have been struggling with two things recently: how to share with the rest of the school the great things that the maths department are doing, and how to increase informal helpful observations within the department without all the pressure. This is the perfect solution to both those problems!

It was years before I truly felt I was doing the job well and understood what the role is. It sounds like you are on a very steep learning curve. Thank you so much for sharing this as it has given me food for thought for progression and a deeper appreciation for how much SLT have to juggle, particularly when starting out.
