Student Leadership
Pupils as Learning Partners (PALPs)
Huxlow PALPs support the Senior Leadership Team by running a range of quality assurance exercises. The aim is to provide a student view of teaching and learning at Huxlow to allow us to share good practice and address areas for development. Students receive training each half term to enable them to undertake this role:
- Term 2: Work Scrutiny
- Term 3: Lesson Monitoring
- Term 4: Work Scrutiny (Literacy Focus)
- Term 5: Learning Walks
Learning Challenge
Focus groups of students meet on Wednesdays with all of their books and the Senior Leadership Team to evaluate aspects of the curriculum and its delivery. We focus on the experience of particular groups of students or target subjects, homework, Literacy or other aspects of teaching and learning. This helps to identify strengths as well as areas for development within the College.
