Summary:

At Lampton School Hounslow, science NQT John Duggan has been working hard on his lesson plans, but he worries that he's not reaching every pupil in his mixed ability Year 8 class. John Bayley watches as he organizes the class into groups so that they can teach each other about the digestive system. Whilst Bayley is impressed by the structure of the lesson, he's noticed that some students can drift off task. He suggests new strategies to engage the whole class in learning: - Allocate roles for group work to ensure that all students participate. - More frequent plenaries during the lesson. - Hands on activities to engage the easily distracted students - Be more generous with praise. John Duggan is shocked to realize how little praise he's giving and resolves to put Bayley's advice into practice. Two weeks later, Bayley returns and is encouraged by John's new approach: generous praise and more classroom activities have generated some excellent work.
