Differentiation and Access for all

2. THE GROW MODEL
 Easy to implement diff
 Re-useable
 Access for all in robust
ways
 Student led
differentiation
 Time it takes to prepare differentiated work for all
 Students not wanting to engage with different tasks due to feeling stigmatised
 Top end students are currently given more work rather than more challenge
 Cold and hot questions
 Choices for all

3. OUR OPTIONS TRIALLED AND THE OBSTACLES WE FACED
1. Cold and Hot questioning
2. Choices for children

4. THE WAY FORWARD – CCC IMPLEMENTATIONS
SUGGESTIONS
Do…
 Create a culture of no fear – students
should be prepared to fail (First
Attempt In Learning)
 Use cold and hot questions over a
course of a few lessons to drive
response engagement
 Allow some pre-learning to prevent
students entering the ‘panic’zone
 Support hot questions with sample
answers
 Easy to implement, takes little planning
time (great for booklook evidence)
Don’t…
 Do not provide a question with
no prior discussion, learning or
research task
 Don’t rush – if it needs 3 lessons
allow it
 Be disheartened if students do
not engage initially – they need
training and encouragement
 Don’t limit yourself to teacher
led activity – can be flip
learning, homework or student
led
