Switch On and PlanTeaching CaféInspired by Study Happy's 'Switch On and Work' sessions, next week we will be holding our first Switch on and Plan event! This is a way for you to plan lessons or complete other work individually in the company of teaching colleagues. The drop-in session is divided into four 45-minute work sessions with two breaks, bookended by goal-setting and a closing chat.
During the breaks we will be informally sharing teaching resources/tips and updating each other on our planning progress. You are welcome to take part in the discussions, or take a break away from the screen – whatever works for you. We hope to see you there!
