The story of Fast Feedback is now the subject of a book, which will be published by Bloomsbury in 2022. We’ll be resuming our popular Fast Feedback conferences in April 2022. At these events, we explore the theory behind Fast Feedback, how it works, and how to successfully embed it into your school. What is Fast Feedback? As part of this approach, children mark their own work and all feedback from teaching staff is given verbally. Teachers look in children’s books every day, meet with them once a week and adjust planning as they see fit but only children get to write in their own book. Schools that have successfully adopted Fast Feedback have seen many benefits: Teacher workload and stress is reduced Children take more pride in their written work Children spend more time reflecting on their learning To keep up to date with our conferences and events, follow us on Twitter at Ivy_Trust.
