Why should we be stretching and challenging our students?
Take a look at this video from Tom Sherrington (@headguruteacher) about his views on Stretching and Challenging pupils.
Our learners attend College for a wide variety of reasons. As their teachers, we should be seeking to challenge the students to go as far as they can in their studies. This can be through planning extra-curriculuar activities for them but it is also through the careful management of their everyday experiences with you.
'Our Students Go Further' should apply to all aspects of their study; their achievements, their English and maths skills, their employability qualities, their confidence with technology and their awareness of equality and diversity.
Are you always challenging your students to go further?
