Share our audit tool with your teachers

Download and adapt our tool to help your teachers reflect on how they use differentiation.

It covers:

  • Which resources the teachers use
  • How they structure activities and tasks 
  • How they develop the use of key vocabulary and language so it's accessible for all groups, but also challenging where appropriate

  • Low-achieving pupils
  • High-achieving pupils
  • Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND)
  • Pupils with English as an additional language (EAL)
