"In Shelthorpe Primary School in Loughborough they pride themselves on valuing pupil voice. Now they have gone a step further by allowing pupils to video lessons and tell teachers what they think of their teaching.
The pupils in AST Lou Harrison's Year 4 class have devised a set of criteria to assess her performance. They have recorded lessons using a video camera and filled in feedback sheets - giving her a Green for 'well done', Amber for 'room for improvement' and a Red for 'poor'. The pupils have filmed the whole process from deciding on the criteria to discussing with Lou how she has done. The resulting pupil video is a unique experiment in pupil voice.
Lou describes how this felt like leaping off a cliff with no way of knowing what the landing would be like. Fortunately the experience turned out to be exhilarating and, during the discussion with colleagues and the head led by consultant Adrienne Jones, it seems that this is an experiment that may spread across the school."

"On a recent visit to India, primary teachers Kate Bowen and Jane Sanders from Leeds discovered that yoga improved the concentration of the Indian pupils. Back in their own schools in the UK they decided to introduce yoga and record the outcomes on video.
From the start, the enthusiasm of the pupils is evident, as is their desire to learn more about how their Indian counterparts practice yoga. They communicate with the Indian pupils via email, and hope soon to be swapping the video they have shot. Throughout the project we see how Kate and Jane encourage the pupils to take ownership of the project, including teaching yoga to children in other Leeds schools.
In the discussion that follows, Rittika Chanda Parruck from the British Council in India talks about the project with Kate, Jane and Gillian Sherrif, from another school in Leeds. She asks whether yoga should be introduced more widely and how its effects could be measured."

"Two teachers use video to investigate a subtle educational problem - how to assess children's changing attitudes to other cultures - in the Brilliant Box Project. At Stamford Park Primary School in Manchester, headteacher Cathy Downing and Year 4 class teacher Beth Matthews video their pupils discussing family values and choosing objects to represent these values. They then place them in a box to send to India. Meanwhile a class in New Delhi does the same thing and sends its box to Stamford Park.
When the Indian box arrives the children guess what's inside and then open the box with much excitement. They are puzzled by some of the contents. Their discussions and choices are captured on video.
Rittika Chanda Parruck from the British Council in Delhi discusses the project with Cathy, Beth and their 'cluster leader' Tim Gartside, to discover what they have learned and how the project could develop."

Christ Church C of E Primary School is a typical rather drab 1960s building of concrete and steel. One aspect of an Action Plan for Year 4 teacher, NQT Aimee Dutton, is the provision of an effective learning space for her pupils. Aimee worked with architect Marco da Cruz to develop a design which provided a more flexible zoned classroom space with areas for science, literacy, reading and maths.
Project manager John Cregg built a stylish mobile "boomerang" device which could be used to divide the classroom for teaching assistants to work with small groups of children alongside the rest of the class.
Over the course of a single weekend the school community worked with the All Change team to transform the space and deliver an effective and stimulating new environment.

Castle Vale performing arts College in Birmingham have a thriving music department. But the specialist room is not very effective.
The All Change team work with the staff to transform the space, providing a performance area and mobile seating for students to enjoy each other's music.
Project Manager John Cregg builds some new shelving to provide a better environment for the students to work on composition, computers and music keyboards have to be accessible at the same time.
Architect Marco da Cruz's design also provides an opportunity for the music students to design graffiti art display boards with a musical theme to brighten up the space.
Also in the programme is a visit to Chancellor Park primary School in Chelmsford, a new-build school where the headteacher Lallie Godfrey had a major input into the design.

The magazine series helping to improve the school environment.
In this episode the All Change team transform a maths room at Woodway Park Secondary School, Coventry
The maths classroom is used to teach students aged from 7 to 11 and the challenge for Architect Marco da Cruz's design was to enable the space to be flexible enough to teach across all age groups. This is achieved by using colour coding to give the department a stronger identity inspired by mathematical models of curves and hyperbolic functions.
The programme also features a classroom of the future build at St Francis of Assisi Primary School in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Through money from the government, the school have built one of the most inspiring classrooms in the country, a futuristic pod designed by Studio E Architects.
We also feature a Building Schools for the Future exemplar primary schools design by Sarah Wigglesworth : the Big Rug School.
