Precision Teaching
Precision Teaching is a targeted intervention used in schools to help children make rapid progress in specific areas of learning, especially where they may be struggling. It is particularly effective for children with SEND but can benefit any learner needing focused support.
What Is Precision Teaching?
Precision Teaching is a structured, evidence-based approach that involves:
- Frequent, short sessions (often daily)
- Clear, measurable targets (e.g. recognising number bonds, reading key words)
- Monitoring progress closely through quick assessments
- Using data to adapt teaching and ensure the child is improving
