Deputy headteacher and assessment lead
Daniel Okafor
I use worked examples, small steps and retrieval in Year 6 Mathematics, looking at wrong answers to decide what needs modelling again and which question to follow up.

I teach Year 6 Mathematics and lead assessment and curriculum. In the classroom I use worked examples, careful small steps and retrieval practice. Pupils need time to see how a method works, practise it and return to important knowledge before they are expected to work independently.
Wrong answers provide information. I want teachers to look at what a response shows and decide what should be modelled again, rather than treat an error as a final judgement. Assessment is most useful when it leads to a teaching decision or a question worth following up.
I also think about the information a school collects. A data point should have a purpose and a person who will use it. I value resources that make assessment clear and proportionate, help teachers see what pupils understand and keep the focus on the next useful action.
How I approach a lesson
Model a method and then practise it in small steps.
Use errors as information for the next explanation.
Collect assessment information only when it can guide action.
