Give me your top tips on creating effective seating plans. We have a whole school Learning and Teaching meeting after school today. It’s about effective seating plans. I read this from @Inner_Drive to get psyched: www.innerdrive.co.uk/blog/psychol...
The psychology behind a great seating plan | InnerDrive
Should you sit your students in rows or groups? Who do you put next to whom? Research says these are the seating plan choices to make based on your goals.

My second years had a third level numeracy test today. We’ve done practically no revision because I want to know their actual level rather than how well they can remember something we revised this week.

One of the coolest things about the whiteboard in my new classroom is that I can write straight onto OneNote ClassNotebook pages and the notes/examples appear instantly on pupil devices. All my notes and examples are saved. Everything from every lesson. Wow. 🤩
