Teaching and learning in 2020
In March 2006, Ruth Kelly announced an independent review of teaching and learning. The review was chaired by Christine Gilbert, Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Schools. In the course of its work, the review group analysed information based on a number of sources, including quantitative data, interviews, seminars, surveys, research, a call for evidence, and visits to schools.
The report, 2020 Vision, has now been published and the review group has presented its conclusions and recommendations to the Secretary of State.
The report presents a vision for personalising teaching
and learning for children and young people aged 5 to 16 and makes
recommendations for the delivery of that vision. The Review has drawn upon a
wide range of evidence and practice in reaching its conclusions and is expected
to be influential in personalising learning over the coming years.
The report considers:
-
ways to improve and sustain the rate of pupil progress
-
strategies to enhance teachers' skills and share best practice
-
how to engage pupils and parents in the learning process
-
ways in which flexibilities in the curriculum might support personalised learning
-
how to establish a better system of innovation in teaching and learning in schools.
