WHY FLASH

Create a shared language in your classroom with skill based feedback using short codes.

Teachers offer skills-based feedback rather than grades in KS3 and KS4 English lessons.
The skills required to access the top bands of GCSE English and English Literature performance are been translated into short codes that teachers use when ‘marking’ work.
FLASH codes are used in lessons to explicitly teach these skills.

Builds Confidence

Using FLASH as a structure allows students to feel secure in knowing how they should respond to questions with a structure that isn't prescriptive.​

Improving student metacognition and responding to assessment data

The FLASH approach is guaranteed to reduce the amount of time spent ‘marking’ books and allows staff to invest precious time to create a more dynamic and personalised approach to maximise potential in their students.

Give your students the tools to regulate their learning and build on successes and identify ways to improve in the future.

FLASH will unlock your staff’s potential to effectively sequence a learning journey for their students that builds confidence and secures knowledge.

FLASH will establish a shared language between staff and students. This will enable your students to become competent with peer and self-assessment and allow your staff to design assessments that develop evaluative learners and shape future lessons.
