๐ FREE GIFT: FULL ROSENSHINE CPD PACK!
To celebrate 50 consecutive weeks of โ๏ธDistillED, Iโve put together something quite coolโฆ
Over the past year, Rosenshineโs Principles of Instruction has been one of the most requested topics from teachers and school leaders. So Iโve put together a complete, ready-to-run CPD pack to help schools explore and implement all 10 principles.
The download includes:
โ 10 CPD PowerPoints (ready for 30โ45 min sessions)
โ 10 strategy checklists (practical classroom actions)
โ 10 planning templates (put principles into action )
โ Covers all 10 of Rosenshineโs Principles of Instruction
Everything you need to run ten focused CPD sessions โ one for each principle.
๐ REPOST and comment ROSENSHINE and Iโll DM you the link. Cheers!
โฐ Available until Sunday 22 March!

- Classroom phone bans reduced academic inequality: lower-performing students gained most, whilst high achievers showed minimal change.
- Classroom spot checks showed fewer disruptions, more engaged teachers, and fewer off-task behaviours.
- Interestingly, while students felt a slight increase in FOMO, this did not translate into poorer well-being or reduced motivation.
- Students who experienced phone bans in classrooms became significantly more supportive of such policies.
