Principles
- Treat enquiry types like genres.
- These skills can be taught discretely and do not have to all be done together.
- Teacher introduces substantive idea.
Children ask questions and teacher selects class question to investigate.
Teacher models skills to be developed in investigation e.g.
- Modelling of each skill follows school: I do, We do, You do
- Goal is by UKS2, children know the different enquiry types and can plan them without teacher direction, although guidance would still be necessary.
- Children will present findings orally, in writing, through display or presentation at least once per year.

I - Inspect
