Positive framing
We have talked a lot about positive framing. This is the idea, that language is important in helping young people reflect on and process recent events. We will be working hard to help pupils appreciate what they have achieved. We are very proud of them and want them to be equally proud of themselves. Examples of Positive framing:
|
Language to avoid |
Language to use |
|
Catch-up |
Move forward, developing and deepening knowledge |
|
Time lost |
Improve our knowledge |
|
Lost learning |
Strengthen prior learning |
|
Make up lost time |
Revisit to strengthen |
|
Speed up |
Challenge ourselves |
|
Impossible to fit in |
Develop core knowledge |
|
There’s too much to do |
We’ll all do what we can |
|
Deadline |
Assessment opportunity |
X coding
Pupils who must self-isolate, as a result of a positive test or close contact, are known as X coded pupils. We will provide work using teams, for more details see below.
