Build positive relationships by creating a sense of belonging, establishing norms and high expectations; and breaking down barriers like unconsious bias.

Maximise memory by managing cognitive load, using effective learning strategies, planning for long term retention and application of knowledge.

Cultivate learning mindsets by building self-belief; developing metacognitive skills; and using feedback, goal setting and classroom talk effectively.

Pictures here, teachers from the teaching and learning team are aligning the evidence of effective teaching with their current practices to create guiding principles for all teachers, tailored for their school, Business Technology Early College High School.
