Building on the learning for Y2

1. How will you generate and maintain pace and momentum within Trios?

2. How do you ensure impact on the combined pupil cohorts pupils is dramatic rather than incremental?

3. How will you ensure that there is real cross-school learning within Trios?

embedding classroom practice to narrow gaps• How and when will you engage with your in-school Leader and Paras

*Process - coaching triad: 12mins per school – c36mins). Focus on one school at a time; one interviewer; one interviewee and one scribe per school
