Strategy 7: Differentiate by the feedback given
Feedback given to pupils should be varied according to their ability to act on the feedback.
For example, if a pupil who is less proficient at Writing has tried hard and produces work with
a number of misspellings or grammatical mistakes, feedback can be given on what they did
well, and only 2 or 3 common misspellings or mistakes highlighted. The pupil should respond
to this feedback because the suggested improvement is achievable for them. If a stronger
pupil writes well and makes 2 mistakes, the teacher can tell them the lines in which the
mistakes are, and perhaps the kind of mistakes they are, and ask them to find and correct
them. The pupil should be able to respond to the extra challenge built in to this feedback.
The same principle applies to giving feedback on pupils’ spoken language.
