Feedback and Marking‘Mindless or Mindful?’

#TMOxford18 December 14

This is the dilemma:

‘Feedback is mentioned as an AFI in

many Ofsted reports which often

translates into…’

www.marymyatt.com

‘Mark everything…’

www.marymyatt.com

Balance of priorities:

‘We are running our schools for our

young people, not for Ofsted.’

www.marymyatt.com

Feedback:

‘Ofsted does not expect to see unnecessary or

extensive written dialogue between teachers and

pupils in exercise books and folders. Ofsted

recognises the importance of different forms of

feedback and inspectors will look at how these

are used to promote learning.’

www.marymyatt.com

So the question is:

‘Is feedback promoting

learning?’

‘Your next step is to apply this method to word problems.’

‘OK’

‘I like that you have carried the tens and hundreds.’

‘Thank you’

‘You have accurately read the scales.’
