An inspirational guide to creating lessons that are thought-provoking, meaningful and at the same time theoretically sound.

“Teachers use initiatives, such as the ‘learning pit’, very effectively across the school to engage pupils in discussion and to build resilience and a determination to succeed. As a result, pupils demonstrate an exceptional attitude to learning.”

Entertaining speakers who are easy to understand. The workshops very much exceeded my expectations.

The presentations were really engaging, challenging and positive. We were shown the value of personalised learning, questioning and feedback - all backed up with pertinent, applicable activities & resources. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will use it to develop my teaching.

James Nottingham is one of the most talked about names in school development in the world today. His main message is focused on the development of pupils, not their achievement.

I just want to thank you for lif ting me back to a state of “I love my job.” I have been a lit tle “tired” lately but now I am back on track!

Put simply, the Challenging Learning Process was the best staff development I have ever had in 17 years of teaching. Very motivating and very useful.
