Learning Walks - School Improvement Simplified

Why Learning Walks

Why Learning Walks?

Great schools don’t just observe teaching — they understand it.
Regular Learning walks turn fragmented snapshots into a coherent picture of practice across your classrooms. With a consistent, low-stakes approach, leaders can capture what really matters, share actionable insights, and strengthen the link between professional growth and school outcomes.

Focus on Culture, Not Judgement

Learning walks aren’t about grading or appraisal — they help develop a culture of curiosity and collective improvement, where every visit is a chance to learn, not to be evaluated.

See the Bigger Picture

Unlike a one-off lesson observation, a series of short visits across different classes helps identify consistent strengths, emerging themes and areas to celebrate trust-wide.

Encourage Collaboration, Not Performance

Lesson observations often focus on individual performance. Learning walks shift the focus to team reflection — promoting conversations about pedagogy, curriculum intent and classroom climate rather than judgement.

Turn Observation into Insight

With clear frameworks and consistent notes, learning walks turn quick snapshots into rich evidence that supports CPD, subject leadership and school-wide strategy.
