The T&L Team from Elvin are back with some thoughts & strategies for talking to teenagers at school. The purpose and the practicalities behind ‘warm/strict’ teaching. Enjoy!

We take our first step towards nurturing the motivation of our pupils by ‘nudging norms’ - using research from Peps McCrea’s excellent book ‘Motivated Teaching’.

Ark Schools has given out more than 21000 Chromebook devices in the last year. By the end of this academic year, all pupils in year 3 and above at Ark Schools will receive a device. In this episode we speak to Lauren Thorpe, Ark's Director of Strategy, who is in charge of this process.

In this episode we speak to our Principal Ms Rebecca Curtis

In this episode we talk to the president of our School Council, Mya Ashbourne. Mya plays an important role in ensuring the views of pupils are heard by the school’s senior leadership team.

The school council plays a very important role at Ark Elvin Academy. It ensures that the views and opinions of every Elvin pupil is taken into account when key school decisions are made. It also ensures that all pupils play an active part as we build a great school.
