Key Stage 2 teacher Annie Ashraf is challenged to see if she can go from good to outstanding, in this pedagogy and professional development resource.
Top inspector Clare Gillies assesses one of Annie's Year 5 geography lessons at Tetherdown Primary School, Walton-on-the-Naze. And Clare's feedback highlights some clear areas for improvement.
Annie receives CPD training from primary geography expert Wendy North, and advice from voice and communications expert Ulrika Schulte-Baukloh.
Annie then has just three weeks back in the classroom to turn their advice into action before Clare returns to observe a second lesson and deliver her final verdict.
Will Annie move from good to outstanding?
