SUMMARY:Making Explicit Direct Instruction Work
DESCRIPTION:“I’ve read the research\, but I worry that Explicit Direct Instruction will be boring. And… what does it actually look like when it’s done well?” \nIf that sounds familiar\, you’re in very good company. The evidence behind Explicit Direct Instruction (EDI) is strong and growing\, yet many teachers remain hesitant to use it in practice. Not because they doubt the research\, but because they haven’t seen enough clear\, compelling examples of what great EDI really looks like in a live classroom – or how it can feel purposeful\, responsive and genuinely engaging for learners. \nThis practical\, insight-rich workshop will be delivered by Doug Lemov from Teach Like a Champion\, one of the most influential voices in evidence-informed teaching. Drawing on his extensive work with teachers and schools around the world\, Doug will help bridge the gap between research and day-to-day classroom practice. \nTogether\, we’ll take the research out of the abstract and bring it to life\, analysing video footage from real classrooms in both the US and England. You’ll see how expert teachers use EDI to create lessons that are dynamic rather than dull\, structured yet flexible\, and engaging for students at every stage. \nYou’ll explore how EDI\, when done well\, actively involves learners\, builds confidence and leads to stronger outcomes. We’ll focus on how teachers maintain pace\, energy and participation\, while still being crystal clear about what students are learning and why. \nA key focus of the session will be the Alternating Principle – a powerful way of designing EDI lessons that keep students thinking\, responding and practising throughout. You’ll see how carefully planned alternation between teacher input and student activity helps ideas stick\, supports understanding\, and prevents lessons from becoming passive or monotonous. \nWe’ll also look closely at the role of visuals in EDI. You’ll learn how to optimise slides\, boards and worked examples so they genuinely support learning rather than distract from it. Finally\, we’ll explore how Explicit Direct Instruction can be combined with Retrieval Practice to strengthen long-term memory\, ensuring that learning lasts well beyond the lesson itself. \nYou’ll leave with a much clearer mental model of high-quality EDI\, practical strategies you can use straight away\, and the confidence to make explicit instruction not just effective\, but engaging\, purposeful and memorable for your students. \nWho should attend? \nThis workshop is designed for teachers and leaders across schools and colleges who want to strengthen classroom practice using evidence-informed approaches and see exactly how they work in real settings. \nIt will be particularly valuable for: \n\nClassroom teachers (primary\, secondary and FE) who want to make Explicit Direct Instruction more engaging and effective\nHeads of department\, subject leads and curriculum leaders looking to improve consistency and quality of teaching\nInstructional coaches and mentors supporting colleagues to translate research into practice\nSenior and middle leaders responsible for teaching and learning\, professional development or curriculum design\nEarly career teachers seeking a strong foundation in high-impact instructional practice\, as well as experienced practitioners wanting to refine and sharpen their approach\n\n  \nWhether you are new to Explicit Direct Instruction or already using it and want to take it further\, this session will give you practical insights\, concrete examples and strategies you can apply immediately in your own classroom or across your organisation. \nCost \nThe cost of the workshop is £325 per person. Invoice payment is available upon request. \nThis includes a full day of expert-led professional development\, delivered by Doug Lemov\, as well as a range of practical tools and resources designed to support implementation back in the classroom. Attendees will leave with concrete strategies\, materials and examples that can be applied immediately to improve teaching and learning. \nGroup bookings are available\, with discounts applying for multiple delegates from the same school\, college or trust. This makes it an ideal opportunity to invest in shared practice and a common instructional approach across teams. \nTo find out more about group rates\, or to discuss your organisation’s needs\, please contact our team. \nGroup discounts are available.

SUMMARY:The Revised Ofsted Framework: What It Really Means for Providers
DESCRIPTION:The revised Ofsted inspection framework is now one year old\, but for many providers\, what this means in practice is still unclear. \nDrawing on FIN’s detailed inspection analysis from our work with over 200 providers\, this webinar goes beyond headline changes to explore how inspections are actually being experienced\, what inspectors are focusing on\, and where provider expectations are not fully aligning with reality. \n  \nWhat to expect \nUsing real inspection case studies\, we will translate these insights into actionable steps for your organisation\, highlighting: \n\nCommon weaknesses\, noting recurring misconceptions where providers are most at risk\nExamining the reality of the inclusion judgement and how this works in practice\nAnd\, how expectations around data\, evidence and management information are evolving.\n\n  \nWe are delighted to welcome Kerry Boffey\, CEO\, Fellowship of Inspection Nominees (FIN) who will explore the gap between perception and reality.  Kerry will address everyday fears\, challenge common myths\, and fully consider whether the framework is delivering on its intended aims around consistency\, transparency and proportionality. \nIn addition\, using guidance from provider case studies\, this webinar is supported by the team at Bud.  The benefits of early intervention will be shared\, highlighting how a proactive approach can help maximise learner achievement whilst ensuring audit readiness and operational efficiency. \n  \nWho should attend? \nThe event will offer support and guidance to all those involved in quality assurance and quality improvement within colleges\, ITPs\, sixth form provision\, HE Providers\, local authorities and employer provision including: \n\nSenior leaders\nQuality nominees\nCurriculum managers\nQuality leads\n\n  \nThis is not a theoretical overview of the framework; it is a practical\, provider-focused session designed to help you understand how your current approach is likely to stand up to inspection\, where you may be vulnerable\, and the steps you can take to strengthen confidence and readiness over the next 12 months. \n  \nDon’t miss your opportunity to be fully informed. Book your place now! \nJoin live or watch later on demand at a time that suits you.
