Training and professional development

We ensure that all staff have the expertise needed to support all children with their reading development. 

In February 2022, we had a whole school training day for Read Write Inc which has ensured that all staff follow the RWI guidance closely in order to have a fidelity to the program.  In addition, the English Team also had a further development day in May 2022 which allowed us to build up our expertise further ensuring every child gets the best possible support.  

We have a coaching model in school which means the Reading Lead is able to monitor and support staff during the daily phonics sessions which ensures all lessons are of a high quality and all children can make good progress.
