Between departments, pastoral leaders, student observers

Description

How one school is tackling the challenging issue of in-school variation (ISV) with a new role for departments, pastoral leaders and student observers. One of the biggest variations in achievement is within schools rather than between schools. Gordano School in Bristol has focused its school improvement efforts on in-school variation and the results have been dramatic. In this film, teachers talk frankly about how they have tackled this sensitive issue. The film looks in detail at three key aspects of the school's ISV project: departments working together, a new role for pastoral leaders and students observing lessons.
