For our final English-language research bite of this block, Tom is joined by PGCE Secondary RE student (and now NQT teaching four different subjects!) Bethany Maunders. For her second assignment, Bethany looked into how to challenge her more able pupils without just piling more and more work onto them.

She settled on the idea of oracy as a skill to stretch her strongest pupils, and found that concentrating on this as an intervention had benefits for all her pupils.

Thanks to Bethany for joining us for this episode, and don't forget you can watch all our research bites on our YouTube channel: www.YouTube.com/@cardiffpartnership
