Our Team
Our team has been carefully selected for their abilities to create a unique learning environment to drive Fifth Dimension to success.
The main strategies our teachers will deploy are:
- an emphasis on subject knowledge and passion on the part of the teacher in order to inspire a love of subject in their pupils
- experiential learning as the starting point for all learning
- classroom teaching that carries the lesson to students with vigor and pace and stretches students beyond the constraints of the syllabus
- attention given to questioning techniques in order to mix higher level complex questions with more straightforward questions
- well-structured lessons that involve group work and individual work, supported by stimulating resources
- regular marking of students’ work that is detailed, individual and shows clearly how to improve/extend
- the use of Assessment for Learning (AfL) techniques, to identify prior knowledge, to engage students actively, to boost feedback (two ways) and to support differentiated instruction where needed
