What does a beige top and a load of boxes have to do with teaching?

Abstract

According to Darling Hammond (2006) teaching is a serious business which involves developing policies and practices fro \u27powerful learning\u27 which meet the needs of learners. So, does it really matter what you wear; where and how you stand; how you speak; what you do with your hands or what the room looks like? You might not think so on first thought but we have discovered that it does makes a difference and is important. A small group of staff has been working with an external consultant on just these matters as well as individually developing their own particular needs and having fun with it. This short reflection shares with you a project about \u27Peer Review\u27 - but perhaps not as you would know it
