The document provides guidance on completing a new lesson plan format. Key points include: 1) The new lesson plan format is similar to the previous one but tick boxes have been removed. 2) Learning outcomes should be written to describe what students will be able to do, not as tasks, and use Bloom's taxonomy command words. 3) Sections on aims, learning outcomes, resources, and evaluation remain similar but sections on equality and diversity, health and safety, and student support have been added. 4) The lesson plan includes a timing/stages grid to outline teacher, student, and support staff activities and assessments aligned to the learning outcomes.
