Research School Network: Greenshaw Research School Newsletter – November 2020

Dear Colleagues,

I hope this newsletter finds you well and that you are managing to balance the competing demands placed on our limited time and resources.

There are a number of exciting developments here at the Research School, which should help lift your spirits and help you stay focused on the nut and bolts of teaching: the classroom. We are delighted to announce a stellar line up of speakers for a forthcoming webinar series looking at effective classroom teaching through the lens of the disadvantaged.

Every week between now and Christmas we will be looking at different ways we can support our most disadvantaged with their learning, with sessions on building student habits, developing their self-regulation and securing their attention. The first session with Mary Reader from The Education Policy Institute (EPI) explores findings about the attainment gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers from their recent Annual Report.

Applications are also still open for Evidence Leads in Education (ELEs), and our remote modular programme on Making the Difference for the Disadvantaged is now open for bookings.

Thank you all for your continued engagement with us and do get in touch if you require any additional support. I hope you enjoy the articles and links in this edition.

Best wishes

Phil Stock, Director of Greenshaw Research School
