Most departments already want teaching and learning to be part of the conversation during meetings, but when there’s a lot going on, finding a useful focus can easily slip. The Teaching and Learning Wheel is there to take away some of that decision-making.

Add it as a recurring item on the agenda, spin the wheel and use the selected prompt to start a practical conversation about a real lesson coming up. It might spark an idea, help colleagues compare approaches or give the department something useful to think through together.

The wheel is a prompt, not a prescription. Not every idea will suit every lesson, and there’s no expectation that anyone has to report back. It’s simply there to make regular conversations about teaching and learning easier to begin and, where useful, help someone leave with one thoughtful idea to try.
