Supporting Supporters: Helping teachers understand what their pupils want and need

“东学帮助学校确保他们的发展和丰富课程符合学生的需求和兴趣。我们相信，每个孩子都应该有机会找到他们喜欢和擅长的东西，以及帮助他们实现目标的支持，无论他们的情况如何。在过去的两年里，我们与教师、学生和学校领导团队共同开发了一个名为“抱负”的项目，目前已向8所学校的1000多名学生提供服务。通过抱负，我们：*帮助学生设定自己的目标，并制定实现目标的计划*使教师能够确定需要他们支持的地方*衡量每个人的进步*帮助教师了解哪些是有效的，哪些是无效的，以及哪里需要做更多的工作。通过这一点，我们也建立了一个证据基础，可以证明任何项目的有效性，其影响超出了考试成绩。这个项目将帮助我们开发面向教师的平台，帮助他们观察、理解、优先考虑并采取行动来支持学生的发展。”

"East Learning helps schools ensure their development and enrichment programmes meet the needs and interests of their students. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to find something they enjoy and are good at, as well as the support to help them achieve their goals, regardless of their circumstance.Over the past two years, we have developed a programme called 'Aspirations' in conjunction with teachers, pupils and school leadership teams, currently being offered to 1000+ students across 8 schools. Through Aspirations we:* Help pupils set their own goals, plus a plan to get there* Equip teachers to identify where their support is needed* Measure each person's progress over time* Help teachers understand what's working, what isn't, and where more needs to be doneThrough this, we are also building an evidence base which can demonstrate the efficacy of any programme with impacts beyond exam grades.This project will help us develop the teacher-facing side of the Aspirations platform, helping them to view, understand, prioritise and take action to support their pupils' development."
