What happens after group work?

Group work can take place over a set amount of time or be ongoing, either way there will always be a review and updates regarding the progress within our groups. During a review it might be necessary to change the members of a group to reduce distractions or to adapt the focus if students are progressing well. Group work may highlight a previously unidentified need within a student, in which case we would recommend an individual intervention or an assessment. A review will happen after the group has ended in order to assess the impact of our groups within your school.

Group work is highly effective in narrowing the gap and encouraging positive change within your school along with many other benefits. To find out more about how our group work can benefit you or to book now, please contact us to talk to one of our team.
