Robin delivered the Greater Depth in Science Course for this school's inset day. The section on the type of enquiry has already prompted us to review the way we deliver this in our practice. For example, we have immediately changed a section on our learning intentions for Science to include the type of enquiry symbols so it helps the children to remember the type of enquiry they carried out. We will be using the type of enquiry symbols around displays too. I thought it was excellent CPD as did the staff.
