Questions for Teachers
"Are you sure all students have a job to do all the time, no one is left just watching?"
What routines are you teaching the students about making the transitions in the lesson?
What Routines are you teaching the students about how you get their attention?
What routines are you teaching them about how they can contribute to the class?
During the developmental part (The classic teaching) What have you told the students they should do? Take notes? How to take notes?
Are you sure all students have a job to do all the time, no one is left just watching? If students are just left watching with no instructions on what to do then teachers are giving students a choice of what they can do. If a teacher does that, the teacher must take responsibility for student’s bad choices.

What is a Forecast Grade?
A forecast grade is the grade a teacher expects a student to achieve for the syllabus. It must be a realistic prediction of what the student is expected to achieve in the examination. It is not intended to be the teacher's assessment of the quality of the student's work during the course, or of the effort that the student has made. In the case of an assessment that the student has already partly completed (e.g. a Cambridge International A Level subject in which the student has already achieved a contributory Cambridge International AS Level result), the forecast grade should relate to the overall qualification including the part already assessed.
Why should I submit Forecast Grades?
We use forecast grade information:
- for the purpose of grading, as a check by comparing actual grades with Forecast Grades
- in instances where a student's script may have been lost in the post
- in cases of special consideration.
Schools are advised that it could disadvantage students if forecast grade information is not supplied when the information is available.
