Do we really need research on learning the curriculum?
Well hello there, and welcome to update #118!
Yes, we do! But the paradox is that we intuitively already know a lot of what works.
So it’s really helpful when what we know works, is also backed up by the cognitive science.
Just released on Myatt & Co is the Curriculum Leaders session on cognitive science and learning the curriculum.
There are great gains to be made if we take account of these when we are helping our pupils learn the curriculum.
In this curriculum session, John Tomsett and I take a look at the headlines of the importance of curiosity, concepts, the fact that our brains privilege story and more!
To access the Curriculum Leaders course, you just need an annual or group subscription to Myatt & Co.
If you or your school don’t already have an annual subscription, it’s easy to subscribe and you get access to the popular primary and secondary subject networks and ongoing professional development.
Until next time
