Adaptive teaching matters because pupils learn at different rates and require different levels and types of support from teaching staff to succeed. However, the use of adaptive teaching, rather than differentiation, smashes through the glass ceiling which can hold some pupils back. This staff meeting starter focuses discussions on how you and your staff can anticipate and break down barriers to learning.

If you wish to find out more about adaptive teaching, there are two training modules in EduSuite relevant to this subject.
In the Adaptive Teaching module we explain what adaptive teaching is and why it matters. We take you through a range of strategies teaching staff can use to adapt their teaching to ensure pupils understand and learn the concepts being taught. We explain how to anticipate barriers to learning, how to use ‘in-the-moment’ adaptations and we explore the importance of using technology and flexible grouping to support pupils’ needs.
Scaffolding is a form of adaptive teaching, and we have a training module entitled Scaffolding Learning which delves into the principles and scaffolding and then we share a range of scaffolding tools and techniques you can easily implement in your classrooms.
