What are Nutshells?
Nutshells are short 30-minute CPD sessions designed to facilitate the whole school adoption of HPL pedagogical practice in Award and Fellowship schools. The ‘Nutshells’ cover a range of topics directly relating to the ACPs and VAAs, as well as covering subject-specific areas of the curriculum. Nutshells are not compulsory but are for HPL Leads and Senior Leaders to use with their teaching staff.
Nutshells are designed to:
- Help teachers understand how to make cognitive success a routine student outcome
- Increase teacher confidence and practice in building the key competencies
- Increase the attractiveness and enjoyment of teaching
- Increase the range and effectiveness of learning opportunities for students
