Following on from this introduction to self-regulation from Chris Runeckles, Marc Rowland explores how we can support students to become better self-regulated learners.

Focusing on recommendation six of the EEF Metacognition and Self-Regulated Learning’ guidance report (see above), Marc focuses in on what he describes as the exaggerated challenge of getting disadvantaged students to work independently during distance teaching’. Drawing on his experience of working with over 500 schools on their pupil premium strategy, he makes the point that the best strategy for closing the disadvantaged attainment gap is to improve these students as learners. Marc then goes on to explore the challenges to this that distance teaching presents and how we might support students with this.
