Over the past 2 weeks Crew Rashford have been taking part in their Student Led Conferences. Parents and carers have had the opportunity to gain insigh into the incredible work and learning that they have been doing over the last few months.
Student-led conferences put students in charge of sharing information about their progress with their families. Students learn to advocate for themselves; they reflect upon and provide evidence for their progress. The structure builds students’ sense of responsibility and accountability for their own learning, and it helps to hone their understanding of what it means to meet learning targets.
Student-led conferences also greatly enhance family engagement. The conference structure builds family members’ interest and understanding in what has been happening in the classroom. As such, relationships among students, family members and staff are strengthened.
You are awesome Crew Rashford!
