Definitely @ChrisChivers2 sometimes I would like them all to reach the same point, if we're having a particularly knowledgebased lesson #ukedchat @MrsThorne Diff by outcome useful as a starter activity, or as a test. Usually tells you what you should already know! #ukedchat @Hon_Holla #ukedchat I use top-down planning: plan for my most able and create scaffolding for those who need it. Ensures challenge! #ukedchat SEN Technology focusses on 'unique abilities' rather than 'disabilities' when supporting mixed ability classroom needs.
