Review Framework
03 Sep 2016The REVIEW framework comprises a set of suggestions and associated guidance. It is designed to help mentors and colleagues give you feedback about your performance and teaching in a constructive and helpful way.
| Stages | Comments | Sample Statements/Questions |
|---|---|---|
| R: Reassure and Re-integrate | Reassure without letting APT know your thoughts; even if they know you thought some teaching was effective they still have to work out what! | Thank you. There was some really effective work there… |
| E: Establish focus on Objectives | Personal goals may be relevant at the start of the programme; as teacher grows, focus must fall on pupil learning. | + What did you want to achieve yourself? + What was your personal goal? + What did you want the group to learn? |
| V: Visit through Questions | Get APT to think about importance of lesson plan to success or otherwise of lesson Link questions to specific Q Standards, particularly those that were a focus of the lesson and part of the RPT’s targets OR depending on the RPT a much more open ended approach can be used and they can set the agenda. Note strength of answers - assessment |
|
| I: Input – your own Contribution | If the APT has run out of ideas (frustrated at questioning) move to more direct ‘leading’ (telling). |
|
| E: Emphasise and Summarise key points raised | Lots of useful points there – Let me try to summarise them for you…… (briefly pick out the key issues) | |
| W: “What have you learnt?” / “What will you now do?” | Ask the APT the questions and try to nail precisely what they will do with what they have learnt to take them forward in the next lesson. |
