Amplifying Pupil Voice outlines how to create an environment where high achieving student feedback has a direct and productive effect on the school and classroom environment. Covering topics such as identification, talent hiding, peer collaboration, community relations, the process of creativity, and more, chapters provide real student insights, methods that focus on listening to the needs of learners and guidance on how to respond in a way that nurtures potential and creates an environment where students can thrive and demonstrate creativity. With a focus on the value of dialogue between learners and educators, this book is a must have resource for teachers, school leaders, and policymakers interested in creating an environment where achievement, potential and well-being are crucial focuses of the educational experience.
