Supporting the delivery and evaluation of lessons

This chapter discusses how you can support a beginning Religious Education teacher in the delivery and evaluation of their lessons. It covers how prior experience that the beginning teacher has had is important in how they deliver lessons, and how you will support them to recognise the impact of this. Further, this chapter identifies central practices that allow experienced teachers to thrive, and how these can be applied to mentoring your beginning teacher. It will also discuss how you can support your mentee to measure pupils’ progress when delivering a lesson and evaluating its success. Finally, this chapter deliberates the importance of using data and assessment to help your mentee plan, teach and evaluate their lessons.
