School coaching · Teacher workshops

Make the project work.
Make the learning visible.

Help your teachers turn curriculum goals into meaningful projects, clear evidence of learning and practical AI workflows.

School workshops & coaching

One priority. A practical workshop.

Start with the challenge your team needs to solve. Build something your teachers can use in the classroom.

01 / Project design

Build a learning mission

Bring a curriculum goal. Develop a project with an authentic question, purposeful milestones and a manageable final product.

  • Map goals to project decisions
  • Plan entry, main and transfer milestones
  • Create a first teaching sequence

Take away: A learning mission and a first teaching sequence.

02 / Thinking & assessment

See the learning behind the product

Design a student process portfolio that helps teachers notice understanding, respond to gaps and assess individual contributions.

  • Use thinking routines purposefully
  • Capture evidence across the project
  • Connect evidence to teacher decisions

Take away: A process portfolio plan with clear evidence checkpoints.

03 / AI & teacher workflows

Make recurring work easier to manage

Build and test a repeatable workflow for a real planning or resource task, with clear sources and teacher review.

  • Choose a task worth improving
  • Develop reusable instructions
  • Check accuracy and classroom fit

Beyond the workshop

Support where ideas become classroom practice.

A workshop gives your team a starting point. Coaching creates space to review the plan, try it with students and improve it using the evidence teachers collect.

  1. 01

    Understand the priority

    Identify your curriculum context, staff needs and the teaching problem you want to solve.

  2. 02

    Build with the team

    Use your own planning materials to develop a learning mission, portfolio or AI workflow.

  3. 03

    Try it and gather evidence

    Agree what teachers will look for and how students will document their thinking.

  4. 04

    Review and refine

    Use the classroom evidence to improve the design and identify a sensible next step.

An illustrative learning mission

Could a greener bus stop make a better place to wait?

Students investigate local conditions, compare design options and justify a proposal. The portfolio shows how their ideas change as they learn.

Example design, not a reported client result. Adapt the topic and evidence requirements to your curriculum.

  1. Entry · Make a first claim

    Observe the site. State what needs improving and why.

    Evidence of learning: A first claim supported by observations.

  2. Main · Apply new knowledge

    Use evidence about heat, water and materials to compare designs.

    Evidence of learning: A comparison that explains the evidence behind each option.

  3. Transfer · Test the proposal

    Consider a different site or constraint. Explain what changes.

    Evidence of learning: An adapted proposal with reasons for the changes.

  4. Final · Defend the decision

    Present the design and trace the evidence behind it.

    Evidence of learning: A proposal and an individual reflection showing how thinking developed.

Before you enquire

A few practical questions.

Who are the workshops for?

School leaders, curriculum teams and teachers who want practical support with project design, assessment or AI-assisted planning. We shape the work around your learners and teaching context.

Can we use our existing unit plans?

Yes. Bring your curriculum goals, unit plans and current resources. The aim is to improve work your teachers already need to do.

Do we need to be experienced with AI?

No. Tell us your team's starting point so we can plan suitable tasks. Teachers review accuracy, classroom fit and tool use throughout.

What does a workshop cost?

We prepare a proposal around the focus, team size, delivery format and follow-up support. Share your preferred timing and scope in the enquiry form.

Can we arrange follow-up coaching?

Yes. Coaching can help teachers review a plan, try it with students and refine the approach using the evidence they collect.

What would you like your teachers to do differently?

Tell us the priority, the team and the timing. We can shape a workshop proposal around the work you need to move forward.
