Agreed. Looking forward to an INSET based around consolidation of existing good ideas.

Haha - sounds like a reasonable answer! I’m not a fan either - certainly not in that kind of ‘formulaic’ format.

Haha - I kinda enjoy those moments in the classroom!
Arguably, there is some depth to those questions! (Beyond ‘a power source’ I’m not sure how I’d answer that first one). The 2nd question could be quite a useful way of gauging prior knowledge (plug/power station/combustion/nuclear etc).

Agreed. Also, the middle column is hard to get anything meaningful from; how do you ‘know’ what you ‘want to know’ in a subject that you have no/little prior knowledge in. (May be useful after a targeted intro lesson though). Contextual cues and a space for reasoning seem key for useful assessment.

In primary, Computing, MFL & Music are, perhaps, the big 3 in terms of ‘let’s get a scheme in because we don’t have the subject knowledge in school’. A school can then easily end up doing way more than the NC needs them to - wasting curriculum time, and not necessarily engaging/inspiring the chn.
