David Pollicutt
Description
Sydney Russell School rates secondary English teacher David Pollicutt as good . As part of our challenge, we bring in top inspector Clare Gillies to assess one of David's Year 8 lessons. The inspector's feedback after David's lesson on characterisation in Great Expectations highlights some clear areas for improvement. He's then off to the clinic to get some one-to-one CPD advice from our English advisor Sabrina Broadbent to work on pedagogy and some help from our voice and communications expert Ulrika Schulte-Baukloh. David then has just three weeks back in the classroom to put their advice into action before the inspector returns to observe a second lesson and deliver her final verdict. Will David make the grade? Will he raise his game sufficiently to go from good to outstanding?
