What educators say about us

Our teachers are beginning to move away from viewing adaptive teaching as a collection of strategies. Instead, they’re making more informed professional decisions about how best to remove barriers to learning while maintaining high expectations for every pupil.
Safiyyah Ansari, deputy head at Oakridge Primary School, on the impact of completing Ambition Institute’s Adaptive Teaching programme
The content of the programme allowed our TAs to reflect on their own and others practice to enhance and support student learning. The programme was able to be adapted to ensure that it fit with the context of our school.
