Julie Fisher films at Broadford

At Broadford Primary School, we are continually striving to develop our practice, so we were delighted when Julie Fisher asked us if we could assist with her research. 

Julie spent the day at Broadford, filming in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. The focus was to look more closely at the different approaches used by teachers when they lead the learning in an adult-led activity, as opposed to when they are coming alongside a child-led activity. Julie filmed sessions where adults plan and direct the learning and then filmed child-led scenarios where adults come alongside the play and then ‘wait, watch and wonder’ before joining in to demonstrate that approach.
