They didn't teach me that. Classroom environment. 7
Description
Miranda Krestovnikoff tackles the topic of classroom environment for a primary NQT in Essex, Jamie Parker. First she meets Tim Benson, the head teacher of one of the UK's largest primary schools, who offers some advice on getting the students involved in displays and making sure they reflect the diversity of the school community. She then heads north to Lancashire to meet the executive head teacher of Alder Grange Technology and Community School, and Sean McDougall from the Design Council. They look at different ways of arranging the classroom. Finally, Miranda calls on Ian Jordan - an orthoscopic researcher - for his views on the impact of the classroom environment on teaching and learning. Will these tips help Jamie create the right atmosphere in his classroom?
