Lesson Observation Feedback Cycle Agent

Every teacher observed each term with specific next steps followed up

Lesson Observation Feedback Cycle Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

School leaders observe lessons and agree development steps with teachers, but cycles drift and next steps are often too vague to check. This agent schedules observations from the timetable and leave calendar so every teacher is seen at least once a term. It collects observation notes and drafts feedback that links strengths and next steps to the school's teaching framework. It checks that each next step names a visible change; vague ones go back to the observer to sharpen. The leader approves feedback before it reaches the teacher. The agent then books a follow-up visit and checks whether the step was met; if not, it suggests coaching or training. Edge case: a teacher is on leave during the observation window, so the agent reschedules and keeps the cycle balanced across the term.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

It schedules evenly across the term and only accepts next steps that name an observable change.

  • Each teacher observed at least once per term

An example run

What happensIn autumn term, a draft next step for a Year 4 teacher said improve questioning. The specificity check failed, so the observer rewrote it as use no-hands-up questioning in the first 10 minutes. The principal approved the feedback. At the follow-up on November 20, the step was seen in 3 of 4 checks, so the agent marked it met and logged it.
