About Us

Great teaching involves hundreds of small decisions: What do students need to understand? Where might their thinking go wrong? What does the evidence tell us? What should happen next?

Teachers’ Studio is a passion project born from classroom practice and professional development work. It aims to reduce some of the cognitive load involved in responsive planning by helping teachers identify key knowledge, anticipate plausible misconceptions, design diagnostic checks and consider possible teaching responses.

The thinking behind Teachers’ Studio is informed by research and guidance on responsive teaching, formative assessment, checking for understanding and adaptive teaching, particularly the work of Harry Fletcher-Wood, Dylan Wiliam, Carl Hendrick and the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF).

Teachers’ Studio supports teacher thinking rather than replacing it — giving teachers useful starting points that they can adapt to their curriculum, context and students.

The aim is simple: to make the thinking behind responsive teaching easier to manage, so teachers can focus on the decisions that move learning forward.
