Primary making progress
Description
The Parents Guide explores what is going on in schools today and discusses some of the key issues from a parent's point of view. In this programme, presenter Fiona Millar and two parents, join together with education consultant Bill Davies to discuss making progress in primary schools. They take a look at some Teachers TV programmes and see how the issue of pupil progress is being addressed by teachers, pupils and, of course, parents. How do schools help gifted and talented pupils? What is personalised learning? How can schools give pupils more choice and increase motivation? What can mind-mapping and other techniques do to help children's learning? And what's the best approach to secondary transfer?
