Term 4 feedback from the Ti Kouka learners

Part way through Term 4, Carolyn and I revisited our learners to seek their feedback on what had worked well for them  supporting and improving their learning in maths and literacy, in the changes to the ladder procedures and also their thoughts on what might help support their learning in 2017.

Their (mostly) very positive feedback reinforced for me that we sere on the right track with core learning.  Many children felt confident that they had really progressed well in core curriculum areas and it was particularly pleasing to get feedback from some of our learners on just how much they enjoyed elements of this core learning. I was very proud of the thoughtful and self-reflective feedback so many of them were able to provide - I doubt I would have managed the same at their age!

Now that the ladder procedures initiated earlier in the year are so embedded, it was great to get such overwhelmingly positive feedback.  Many children felt they had progressed further and had better basic facts knowledge that they would have with the pressure of very limited time under the old system.

It was also interesting to get their feedback on how their learning could be helped next year.  The enthusiasm for outdoor learning (or just time outdoors) is clear and we will need to carefully consider how we can address this next year. I would ideally love to have some outdoor furniture along in front of LC3,4 and 5 - let's see what we can come up with!
