For schools

Build a teacher development process people trust.

Classroom Watch helps schools bring observation, instructional coaching and professional growth into one clear system—using the teaching standards, roles and policies that make sense for their community.

Shared development themes

This term’s learning conversation

“How consistently do learners explain their reasoning before receiving support?”

Why school teams choose it

Move beyond one-off observations.

A report alone does not create improvement. Classroom Watch creates a practical link between evidence, a well-run feedback conversation and the next action a teacher chooses to take.

01

A consistent coaching language

Give observers and teachers a simple shared framework for preparing, noticing and discussing learning.

02

A clearer development picture

Connect individual goals, observation themes and professional learning without turning teachers into rankings.

03

A workable school process

Use roles, permissions, standards and templates that reflect how your school actually operates.

A thoughtful rollout

Start small. Build confidence. Scale with care.

You do not need to redesign every development process on day one. Start with the observation routine that will make the biggest difference, learn with your team, then grow from there.

See implementation resources

Set your foundations

Add your school identity, teaching and leadership standards, observation approaches and permissions.

Invite your team

Bring in teachers, coaches and leaders. Schools control access while each user has a clear role.

Start with one useful routine

Begin with self-observation, coaching cycles or a small pilot before expanding the workflow.

Learn from the right patterns

Review school-level themes to plan professional learning while keeping individual evidence in context.

A shared platform, different needs

Useful for every person in the development conversation.

Teachers

A private or shared space to prepare for reflection, record evidence, set goals and own the next step.

Instructional coaches

A structured way to capture evidence, hold supportive conversations and follow through on agreed actions.

School leaders

A joined-up view of observation activity and development themes, with the controls to protect trust.

Privacy, safeguarding and control

Designed to make the boundaries clear.

Schools decide which observation modes are available, who can see school records and how standards are configured. Self-observations remain private unless the teacher chooses otherwise.

  • Role-aware access to school workspaces and administration
  • School-defined standards rather than a compulsory external framework
  • Clear consent step before authorised audio or video capture
