How can we try to overcome learning loss?

We’re proud to be working with partners from across the sector to deliver the Summer Series: a programme of free webinars to support teachers and school leaders through, and beyond, the coronavirus outbreak.

In our ninth and last session Ambition Institute's Paula Delaney looks at ways teachers can overcome learning loss.

Paula is joined by:

• Carly Moran, Deputy Headteacher at Westminster City School
• Rachel Speed, Head of Quality Education at CPD Federation

Watch back to learn about:

• Cognitive science on forgetting
• Research on forgetting and the education gap
• Strategies to overcome forgetting – for now and in the future
