a colleague received a satisfactory because they had deviated from the lesson plan in respobnse to a pupil question! he said if that person had stuck to the lesson plan it would have been good!

I would assume that each student should be given the lesson plan, so they do not deviate from A PLAN

I got a good again today by the history HMI inspector - its still elusive for me - a colleague received a satisfactory because they had deviated from the lesson plan in respobnse to a pupil question! he said if that person had stuck to the lesson plan it would have been good!

Gasp! I thought that the sign of a good, sorry, outstanding teacher was one that was flexible and would adapt on the spot to theit students' needs, and encourage enthusiasm/enjoyment of the subject? :blink:

Whereas a colleague got satisfactory because he didn't deviate when kids responses led his lesson in a different direction.

The Mossbourne way is not the only way to be an 'outstanding' school

I thought that this was relevant here

Well, I've just been done today. I'll see later on from the feedback session what they thought.

"Good". The inspector liked the lesson and told me that he found it hard to focus on his job because he was engaged by the activities. However, he thought I was slightly too ambitious.
