Inspiring Induction Practices
- Unlike ‘footprints in the sand’, this will hopefully stay in my brain!
- One of the first training courses that kept my interest throughout!
- A twisting, green-slimy feeling of guilt and abject excitement.
- It reignited my desire to create a dynamic induction for learners and not on a mechanism for delivering dry college policies.
- This was far better than a toolkit of activities!
- Icing on the cake – my induction is the cake – the session today is the icing.
- Teaching backwards – start with the end in mind.
- It reaffirms some key messages and ideas, but shifts thinking about impact – a good focus.
- The induction experience needs to be motivating enough to make learners curious!
- New ideas to make ‘expert learners’.
- I could tell by the buzz that colleagues were engaging with this.
- A rich and stimulating event that engaged everyone.
- A paradigm shift – thinking much more about impact on students and exciting ways of achieving real impact.
- Out of the box – in the zone.
- Fuelled my imagination for developing more creative ways of delivery for induction. Also helped me pin point what I want my induction phase to achieve.
- Interesting and thought provoking.

- Aspirational.

Transformational Lesson Observation
