Writing planning workshops - Yr1-Yr2

Summary

These sessions will support teachers’ understanding of planning progressive teaching sequences using their own curriculum and texts and will:

consider ‘reverse planning’ principles and develop AFL strategies to ensure writing outcomes and expectations are appropriately pitched for the class
provide an input on year group relevant subject knowledge including sentence structure, use of vocabulary and supporting children with their own planning of writing
develop modelling at word & sentence level and for longer written outcomes

Group size is small to ensure maximum support from the course leader. Teachers can attend individually, or with year group teams and subject leads to plan collaboratively.

Please note these sessions are of similar content to previous years so are open to teachers who have not attended before.

Your school's commitment to this booking

Involvement in this booking will require substantial commitment and we do need to emphasise this. Expectations between projects will vary slightly, but by signing up you and your school are agreeing to:

Release the named staff to attend all events within the programme.
Give staff the necessary support to undertake school-based activities, gap tasks and improvement work.
Engage well with the opportunities in the programme and, if invited, school-based support.
Give at least 48 hour’s notice if you are no longer able to attend a session you have booked. Failure to notify or cancellation within a 48 hour window of the training date will result in a 100% charge of the course fee. If you are a maintained Leicester City primary school, and accessing the course free of charge, the cancellation cost will be the charge advertised for non-maintained/Leicestershire schools. For non-maintained/Leicestershire schools the advertised charge will apply.

I can confirm that my school is in agreement with the terms outlined above
