The Prospect Trust

Rosenshine for Mastery (R4M)

Pillar 2 - Evidence Based Pedagogic Priorities

Overview

"...in any time and place, schools can provide the best education for virtually all of their students - if the schools choose to do so."

Benjamin Bloom, 'Human Characteristics and School Learning' (1982)

Skilled teachers delivering education through effective pedagogy is key to quality improvement.  To give our students the best education, we have to know our subject, love our subject and love teaching our subject.  We need to know how human beings learn (not just the mechanics, but also the motivational factors) so we understand how to teach them. We need to commit to excellence - not compromise, not to accept mediocracy or 'good enough'.  Through the pedagogy of mastery, TPT will strive to ensure our students understand and believe that they can achieve far more than they imagined providing they have high aspirations, work hard and persevere when things get tough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Outstanding Education

Mastery is the Trust's key (and ambitious) teaching and learning approach, delivered through the pedagogic framework provided by Barak Rosenshine's '10 Principles of Instruction'. Simply put, Mastery is an approach to teaching in which all students are expected to understand what they have been taught and to a high level.
