Description

Creating cognitively challenging classrooms

Building on NACE’s research into cognitively challenging learning environments, these on-demand courses explore key aspects of cognitively challenging teaching and learning. Grounded in research, each module is brought to life with practical examples of cognitive challenge in practice – at the whole-school/leadership level, and within the individual classroom.

Some modules are more relevant for senior leaders and others leading on challenge and high achievement in schools, while others are suitable for all – supporting a shared approach to cognitively challenging teaching and learning. Each is designed to be relevant across the primary and secondary phases, with the exception of module 7, which is available in two phase-specific versions.

Accessed via online learning platform Nucleus Learning, each module comprises a series of recorded presentations – approx. 45 minutes per course, broken down into bitesize chunks – accompanied by questions for reflection and additional resources to help participants embed key takeaways, develop action points, and apply the course content within their own context. While each purchase provides a single login, the course content can be displayed on a shared screen to support group/whole-school CPD. 

Course content:

  • Module 1: Exploring cognitive challenge
  • Module 2: Oracy and discourse
  • Module 3: Climate for learning
  • Module 4: Effective questioning strategies
  • Module 5: Planning to the top
  • Module 6: Independent learning
  • Module 7a: Practical strategies for challenge (primary)
