A shared cycle

Start with learner evidence and a real task. Model a useful teaching decision, rehearse it with feedback, trial it in class and return to an independent learner response. Cascade the practice through demonstrations and supported trials rather than slides alone.

Who does what?

Department lead: chooses the task, protects rehearsal and review time, and keeps the practice connected to the subject. EAL colleague: helps analyse language demands, models support and reviews learner evidence. Participating teacher: adapts, trials and brings a small response sample. School leader: coordinates time, resources and follow-up across teams.
