What has been done so far:
- Annual Student Conferences. This year we enlarged the age range from KS2-KS3 to KS1-KS5. 120 pupils from 24 schools came together to talk about how they learn best and to share their experiences of Afl in practice
- Annual Teacher Training Conference. We were privileged to have with us this year Professor Mary James, Deputy Director, IoE, who provided a training day
- Working Parties were established to make the network more accountable and emphasise the ethos of sharing
- Termly meetings for project leaders to inform and share good practice
- Biographies of network members were shared to promote easy access to experienced practitioners within member schools
- An Afl guide for parents was produced with a primary and secondary version suitable for personlisation by individual schools
- A memory USB was distributed to all project leaders to provide immediate access to available materials
- A student handbook was produced and distributed to all schools incorporating a 'student entitlement'
Latest News:
After many successful years, the AFL Network is ready to move on. Following evaluation and discussion with current project leaders, we believe that the future direction of the network lies in a “Learning Community” model.
Schools have been asked to submit a focused School Improvement Project to the network by February 23rd. The successful schools will meet on Friday 27th March to formulate their ideas. A celebration/conference will be organized for 2009.
