Active Observation

In Year 7 English this week, we have been developing active observation skills by “hunting” for outstanding work in the classroom. Using the visualiser, we live-marked exceptional responses together, modelling how high-quality answers can be refined and improved in real time.

👏 Harlee, Year 7 shared an excellent example, and this was live marked under the visualiser, allowing the class to see precise feedback in action.
🖊️ Evie, Year 7 then demonstrated brilliant learning behaviours by responding thoughtfully to this feedback, making clear and accurate improvements in green pen.

This approach encourages pupils to:
✔️ Engage with feedback actively
✔️ Learn from strong peer examples
✔️ Take ownership of improving their work

A fantastic example of reflective learning and high expectations in action - well done Year 7! 🌟
