AOTW: Apprenticeships

1. What are three things you have learned about apprenticeships?

2. How do you apply for an apprenticeship?

3. What kind of professions offer apprenticeships?

4. What are some of the barriers to apprenticeships?

5. Would you apply for one? Why/why not?

Highfields School Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural

What do you think our SMSC focus is today?

Hint: Look at the images, what do you think they represent?

Education

Rule of Law

The Rule of Law is one of our British values.

• Think about what this means to you. Define what it is.

• Now talk about it with your partner. How similar are your definitions?

• Be prepared to feedback your best definition to the form

Highfields School Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural Education

How close did you get?

• KEYWORDS are highlighted!

• Did you manage to identify any key words from the true definitions? Well done if you did!

What does this mean for me?

The Rule of Law is a ‘two way street’. It affects citizens (us) and the government.

- Citizens- We follow the laws agreed by Parliament

- Government. They can not just do anything that they wish. They too must follow the laws established by Parliament

Big Questions:

1. What benefits does the rule of law bring to citizens?

2. What limits does the rule of law place on the government? Is this a good thing or bad thing?

3. What might the country look like without the rule of law?

What is it like when a country doesn’thave the Rule of

Law?

• North Korea is a dictatorship. It does not have a Parliament.

• Its leader is called Kim Jong Un.

• He can do whatever he wants.

• He can arrest people and throw them in prison for literally anything he feels.

• He uses the country’s money to buy expensive cars… whilst millions starve to death.

• North Korea does not have the Rule of Law. There is nothing to protect ordinary people from Kim’s abuse of power.

What is it like when a country doesn’thave the Rule of Law?

In the 1800s parts of the USA were lawless. This is because there were not enough police to enforce the Rule of Law. This made the West a very dangerous place to live. Violent crimes, robberies and even murders were common. Ordinary people were at the mercy of criminal gangs.

Highfields School Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural Education

How might this apply in school?

• How does the rule of (school) law apply to you as students?

• How does it apply to me as a teacher?

• How far does this make school a better place to be?

TPS: What revision advice are you going to take into your practice?

WOTW: Practice

TPS 1: Why is increasing our vocabulary important?

TPS 2: Where might we see the word practice in life?

Speaking frame: We might see the word practice…

Approach to Learning

This is all about how you are approaching your studies at Highfields:

• Are you taking responsibility for your learning?

• Are you demonstrating resilience in the face of setbacks?

• Are you reflective about your approach to your studies?

How Approach to Learning Works

1 – Outstanding – you are highly likely to achieve your potential

2 – Good – you are likely to make progress and achieve your potential

3 – Requires Improvement – your approach to learning is not there yet, therefore you are at risk of underachieving

4 – Inadequate – you are likely to underachieve

TPS - What does

an

outstanding learner look like?

An outstanding Highfields student routinely…

Takes full responsibility for the quality of their books, work, learning, behaviour and the wellbeing of others.

Thrives on challenges, doesn’t give up easily and is determined to improve

Gets actively and enthusiastically involved in all learning

Seeks feedback and uses next steps to make big improvements to their work

…and as a result is HIGHLY likely to make great progress and achieve their potential

Students who could be more effective…

May require prompts from others to get on with work, stay on task and meet expectations

Books suggest that often they could take more pride in their classwork and/ or their homework

May choose not to volunteer answers or contribute to activities and instead let others do the thinking

Can avoid challenging themselves and may settle for ‘good enough’

…and as a result is putting themselves at risk of underachieving

Responsibility

Your Approach to Learning (ATL) grade is yourresponsibility.

After you have received it, it is over to you to have a learning discussion with your teacher as to how to improve.

“The more you take responsibility for your past and

present, the more you are able to create the future you seek.”

Resilience

Reflection – Next Steps

You will get an A4 copy of your profile and an A5 review sheet:

Task One

• On your profile, colour in your ATL grade:

• 1 & 2 in green

• 3 in yellow/orange

• 4 in red

Stick this profile in your form time exercise book!

If you have been given an ATL grade of a 3 or 4 you then need to have a learning conversation with your teachers. Remember this is your responsibility.

Reflection – Next Steps

You are now going to monitor your progress towards achieving the Highfields Community Award.

There is a reminder of the criteria on the next slide.

Bronze

• Club Participation – Students must regularly attend at least one extracurricular club (music lessons included). This should be across at least 3 school terms.

• School Leadership – Students must be a school ambassador or participate in at least 3 events organised by the ambassadors.

• Classroom success – Attendance 96% or above in 4 terms. Positive rewards score. ATL 2.8 or better. 3 litter picks a year.

Reflection – Next Steps

You are now going to fill in your review sheet

Stick this review in your form time exercise books!

Task Two

Fill in your;

- attendance - total reward points - total consequence points

This information is all at the bottom of your profile.

Reflection – Next Steps

Task Three

You can now work out your Rewards – consequences total.

This must be 0 or above to pass the Bronze level and above 50 to achieve Silver.

E.g. Achievement points = 84

Consequence points = 0

84 – 0 = 84

Task Four Copy your average ATL grade from your profile onto your review sheet. This needs to be between 1 and 2.8 to pass the Bronze level (and between 1 and 2.4 for Silver)

Reflection – Next Steps

Task Five

Fill in the wider curriculum clubs you attend. You need to regularly attend a club for a least 3 terms to achieve Bronze (and 4 for Silver).

Task Six

Fill in the Student leadership section.

Are you a school ambassador? Events will start to be organised for you to get involved in.

Reflection – Next Steps

Task Seven

Set yourself a target. These needs to be a SMART target e.g. Attend a wider curriculum club, complete 2 litter picks next half term, improve AtL in Maths.

Avoid vague targets such as ‘do better’ and ‘try harder’.

Are you on track to achieve your Bronze level? If not, why not? What do YOU need to change?
