Cranbrook Visit Training Day

πAn Incredible and Enriching Experience for Our Trainees This Week! π
This week we explored:
π Exposition of information – delivering content with clarity and impact.
β Effective questioning – deepening understanding through thoughtful inquiry.
π EAL strategies – supporting learners with English as an additional language.
π§ Unconscious biases – a crucial step in our ongoing EDI development.
A huge thank-you to Stephen Farmer Cranbrook Education Campus for being the perfect host—you absolutely delivered! π The sessions were nothing short of exceptional.
π‘ Maddi Jenkins led a thought-provoking EDI session, packed with meaningful discussions and well-chosen case studies—the perfect foundation for our trainees to build on!
π£οΈ Ellie Jacobs delivered an insightful session on EAL strategies, full of practical, actionable takeaways. The "lean in" example about learning more about our EAL families was a standout moment that will stick with everyone!
π @Laura McPherson unpacked the exposition of information with research-based insights and engaging delivery—so many skills and strategies packed into just 45 minutes!
β Rich Pepperell wrapped up the day with an energetic, witty, and impactful session on effective questioning. A seamless way to tie together all the techniques we’ve been learning—an absolute highlight!
And the CEC Library was a hub of inspiration, showcasing everything Cranbrook does to support its students.
