The video feedback tool in the Great Teaching Toolkit allows teachers to upload short clips of their classroom practice and use them as a basis for reflection and development. By watching your teaching back, you can notice details that are often easy to miss in the moment and focus on specific elements of great teaching. You can use the tool independently for self-reflection or share videos with colleagues to invite targeted, developmental feedback. This makes it a flexible and powerful way to deepen professional learning, refine techniques, and support ongoing improvement.   Video feedback is versatile and can be used by individuals and teams in a variety of ways: - During the ‘Set a goal’ phase of the development cycle, you might share a video with a colleague to gather feedback about your current practice in relation to your development focus. - During the ‘Develop expertise’ phase of the development cycle, you can use the video feedback tool to rehearse and review your chosen classroom technique. You could also share videos with colleagues for feedback at this stage. - During the ‘Review’ phase of the development cycle, you can capture video to exemplify progress you have made as a result of your professional learning. - Many schools also use the video feedback tool to support coaching conversations, and structured feedback sessions. - Some departments or year groups use the video tool as a window into their classrooms, sharing effective practice, engaging in collaborative review of videos, or building a bank of great teaching examples. - [School management](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [School/college details](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-management?hsLang=en#school-college-details) - [Coordinator accounts](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-management?hsLang=en#coordinator-accounts) - [Teacher accounts](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-management?hsLang=en#teacher-accounts) - [Subscription](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-management?hsLang=en#subscription) - [Getting started](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [My account](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/my-account?hsLang=en) - [Development cycles](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/development-cycles?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting started](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/development-cycles?hsLang=en#getting-started) - [Using development cycles](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/development-cycles?hsLang=en#using-development-cycles) - [Feedback tools](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/feedback-tools?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Student surveys](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/feedback-tools?hsLang=en#student-surveys) - [Self-reflection and peer feedback](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/feedback-tools?hsLang=en#self-reflection-and-peer-feedback) - [Video feedback](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/feedback-tools?hsLang=en#video-feedback) - [Courses and resources](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/courses-and-resources?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Resources](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/courses-and-resources?hsLang=en#resources) - [Teacher courses](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/courses-and-resources?hsLang=en#teacher-courses) - [Lead programmes](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/courses-and-resources?hsLang=en#lead-programmes) - [Courses troubleshooting](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/courses-and-resources?hsLang=en#courses-troubleshooting) - [Great Teaching Teams](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/great-teaching-teams?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Using Great Teaching Teams](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/great-teaching-teams?hsLang=en#using-great-teaching-teams) - [Great Teaching Leads](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/great-teaching-teams?hsLang=en#great-teaching-leads) - [School environment and leadership](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/school-environment-and-leadership?hsLang=en) - [GDPR](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/gdpr?hsLang=en) - [Problems & feedback](https://support.evidencebased.education/en/knowledge/problems-feedback?hsLang=en) [![powered-by-gtt-CIRrn5dM](https://support.evidencebased.education/hubfs/powered-by-gtt-CIRrn5dM.svg "powered-by-gtt-CIRrn5dM")](http://evidencebased.education) Copyright © 2025, Evidence Based Education
