“I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I found it to be very practical. It introduced me to a range of fantastic strategies and approaches for AfL that I intend to implement in my classroom. There was also a range of downloadable resources at the end including lots of ideas for plenaries and a plenary producer, and I believe that these will be very useful. This course has completely changed how I view AfL and also will greatly enhance my future practice in this area. Thank you, Rahoo!”
