A Recovery Curriculum

A recovery curriculum is not the same as a catch-up curriculum. A recovery curriculum is focused on the social and emotional aspects of returning to school; it deals with physical activity and in giving students the coping strategies they need for dealing with a very different world to the one we knew earlier this year.

Overview:

This recovery curriculum deals with physical activity and in giving students the coping strategies they need for dealing with a very different world to the one we knew earlier this year. A catch-up curriculum, on the other hand, is focused on closing the academic gaps resulting from months away from formal schooling.

  • Find out about the importance of personal development for students who have had a prolonged absence from school
  • Find out about all aspects of mental and physical well-being
  • Includes a six-week recovery programme

Learn about:

  • Explore the social and emotional effects of the pandemic on students
  • Learn about the latest research around trauma and recovery
  • Develop a trauma toolkit
  • Find out about Building Resilience
  • Explore character virtues.

Why this course is relevant or important:

Although both the recovery curriculum and catch-up curriculum are important, cognitive load theory tells us that if students are struggling to process a new normal, it is going to be too difficult to learn academic content. Therefore, the recovery curriculum is vital for a safe and successful return to school.

To offer you complete flexibility we have made this course fully online. Through a series of 2 videos, Lesley takes you through the latest research and offers practical guidance on returning to school; you can then download the 6-week curriculum and the many resources to support it- all from the comfort of your home or school office.

  • Receive a six-week, fully resourced recovery curriculum for Years 1-6.

The Power of Oracy: Unlocking Student Potential Across the Curriculum
1st Oct 2024
Oracy—the ability to express oneself fluently and confidently through spoken language—remains one of the most overlooked yet essential disciplines in education today. While literacy and numeracy often dominate educational priorities, oracy is increasingly recognised as the key to unlocking deeper learning, critical thinking, social mobility, and employability across all subject areas. Despite its importance, oracy continues to receive limited attention in many curricula worldwide.In this blog, we will explore the benefits of oracy, the research supporting its integration into classroom practice, and how teachers can make it an integral part of the curriculum.

A Metacognitive Strategy of Predicting: Teaching Tentative Language to Overcome the Fear of Being Wrong
16th May 2024
Making predictions is a critical skill in learning that spans all subjects and year groups. However, one of the most significant barriers to developing this skill in students is their fear of being wrong. This fear can stifle creativity, hinder learning, and prevent students from engaging fully with the material. As teachers, it is essential to create a classroom environment that values the process of thinking and exploration over the correctness of answers. A powerful tool in achieving this is teaching and using tentative language. This blog will explore how to foster such an environment and provide practical strategies for incorporating tentative language into prediction activities.
