Guilt-free planning
Written by David Didau to accompany the article 'Guilt-free planning: tips for training teachers'. This resource gives you practical solutions for effective planning, including some prompts to help you think about:
- what students will think about
- Directed Improvement and Reflection Time (DIRT)
- what the 'story' of the lesson is
- the '1 in 4' rule
- the problem with progress.
Sample content
Directed Improvement and Reflection Time (DIRT)
Marking is the other albatross hanging around hardworking teachers’ necks. Instead, kill two ill-omened birds with a single stone by making the work you’ve marked the basis of next lesson’s plan. Direct students to spend at least 10-15 minutes acting on feedback to improve their work.

Ask yourself:
What does this student need to do next?
What task could I give them to provide the opportunity to move on?
How could I phrase questions to make them think about what to do next?
