TEACHING AND LEARNING NEWSLETTER: AUTUMN 2 There is some incredible teaching and learning practice happening at The Samworth Church Academy, and this newsletter aims to recognise that. This publication reviews our practice in the classroom as well as intending to offer some innovative T&L ideas. What our students think! The best thing about learning is … The lessons that I love are … Keep a close eye on what our students think about our lessons from the next issue.
