Video – Student Voice
“The power of positive teacher-student relationships is critical
for learning to occur.”
p. 25 SEF
Team Conversation
• How is this example of student voice evidence and
how can it be used as part of the monitoring process?
• In your role, how are you paying attention to student
voice and how is it informing your work?
“The single biggest factor in whether students try or give up, leave
or stay is their sense that somebody in the school knows who they are
and cares about what happens to them”
Steven Katz Monitoring
Engage in collective learning around challenges of practice so
that understanding of those challenges grows deeper. Through
investigation proposed solutions emerge that are then
tested/monitored to see if they help. We want to see evidence
of a permanent change in thinking and behaviour.
