Whether it's the kit for the school football team or teaching methods in class, one thing is important to remember: 'one size fits all' doesn't really fit anybody. The whole-class teaching methods of a few years ago have been left behind, as we aim for personalised learning, looking at each child as an individual. So how do we implement this in our classrooms? And how can leaders make sure that all children get the right fit?

This resource offers the answers to these questions and many more. It helps develop the techniques needed for leading personalised learning effectively. But it also shows something even more important: how to shape your staff's expectations so that they make sure every child is able to fulfil their potential.

It gives you questions and activities to support and stretch you as you develop your leadership and set about changing the culture in your school. It helps you show your staff both how to bring personalised learning to life in the classroom today, and make it part of your school in the years to come.

Giving your staff a new way of thinking about learning will make this one of the most powerful tools you could have.
