The Inspire Ring consists of 72 descriptions that profile your Teaching Style. It invites you to rate each description in terms of how it describes you. The Ring helps you make sense of your attitude to and relationships with pupils. It is a reflection tool, not an assessment or a test. The Inspire Ring gives immediate feedback in the form of a personal chart, allowing a structured and focused discussion of your strengths and issues for development.

It gives four bits of information:

  • overall inspiration score from 0 to 100%
  • your balance between support and challenge e.g. 60% to 40%
  • a % score for each of the teaching styles
  • your specific strengths and issues

Teachers /lecturers can invite students aged fifteen and above to complete the Inspire-Ring to give feedback on their teaching style. Younger students can use the Inspire-Ring (Learner) or the Inspire-Ring (Junior).

You can create a collated view of the teams you work in and of the learners you interact with using ASSEMBLY. See resources for more information.

Creating Your Chart

A dialogue comes up when you have finished, and from there a PDF will be created once you press OK. Make sure there is a name in the name box above as this helps identify your chart from all the others.

Depending on your browser a preview of your chart will be displayed which can be printed. We will also attempt to save a pdf file onto your device. If no preview appears find your pdf (in Downloads) to print your chart.
