  11. RAG - what is it ? • All students should aim for 100% attendance. • Our minimum target for attendance is 95%- students who achieve this will be ‘green’ students. • Students between 90- 94.99% are ‘Amber’ and should be encouraged to improve. • Students on less than 90% attendance are ‘red’ and have targeted intervention as they will be seen as ‘Persistent Absentees.’ 11 25/09/2019 11 25/09/2019 11 25/09/2019 11

  24. Practice makes permanent Retrieval Practice involves practising remembering things you already know. It must be remembering, not recognition. Retrieval Practice activities usually have the following 3 parts : 1. They involve you trying hard to remember something; 2. You record or use what you can remember; 3. You check if what you remembered was correct and note what you forgot. 24 25/09/2019 24 25/09/2019 24 25/09/2019 24

  25. Homework • At least half of homework will be based on retrieval practice and other revision based activities. • Homework will usually be set in the first half of a lesson. • Students record their homework and the day it is due in their journal. • Students will be given guidance on how long to spend on each homework task and what is expected. •Students will usually be given at least one week (5 school days) to complete the homework. • To be successful, homework must be completed and handed in on time. 25 25/09/2019 25 25/09/2019 25 25/09/2019 25

  27. Tri-Weekly Assessments (TWAs) • Low stakes, high educational value. • TWAs take place every 3 weeks. This ensures they: -are relevant to current teaching and learning; -can be used immediately to inform the delivery of lessons; -pinpoints students ’ strengths and weaknesses in a timely manner. • A response is set following a Tri-Weekly Assessment, designed to address errors and misconceptions. 27 25/09/2019 27 25/09/2019 27 25/09/2019 27
