Are you keen to move from 'Good' to 'Outstanding'?
Pivotal work with Schools and FE Colleges to transform teaching. Pivotal INSET and coaching projects create sustainable, measurable change within teaching teams. We work with teachers and lecturers to meet and surpass new OFSTED standards. This is active, practical, bespoke training that is tailored to departments and faculties. Let us create a model of outstanding teaching within one team and we will create an irresistable model of outstanding practise for the whole insitution to learn from.
This course was in a different league to others I have attended. The presenter's knowledge and experience was used very effectively to illustrate this vast subject and to identify real people in real situations. I could have done with this training twenty years ago!

- Fully integrate independent learning into your teaching
- Structure learning and raise expectations to raise achievement
- Manage active and collaborative learning
- Learn and develop the habits, rituals and routines of highly successful teachers.
- Plan for multiple intelligences in the classroom.
- Establish assessment for learning at the task level
- Drastically improve OFSTED/HMI and internal teaching assessments
The Maths Department have been really excited about the work that has been developing with Darrell. His impact in the department has been so positive. He has coached us to help the department find their own solutions to the issues we have. We are still buzzing from the experience of working with the Pivotal team. Probably the most exciting bit is that we have started rolling out the ideas we have been trying to the Science Department.

One-day INSET programmes also available.
Pivotal trainers can successfully prepare your colleagues for inspections. We ensure that throughout the inspection process the priority remains successful teaching and learning in the classroom. Pivotal trainers show your staff not just how to teach an outstanding lesson but how to make sure that the inspectors witness and record elements that can easily remain hidden. We will give your teachers the confidence to demonstrate how outstanding their teaching is.
Pivotal trainers have led institutions out of 'Special Measures', turned round aspects from 'Notices to Improve' and created revolutionary change in the most difficult circumstances.
Pivotal work with teachers and lecturers who are training as well as those who are qualified and highly experienced. We train vocational tutors in FE studying on DTLLS programmes, Teach First Graduates, PGCE and BEd students, Teaching Assistants and Higher Level TAs as well as qualified teachers who are building their basic skills to improve OFSTED and/or internal gradings.
Pivotal training is active, models advanced teaching skills and is focused on classroom practice.
