Improve literacy attainment with our CPD training for school staff
Are you looking for Continued Professional Development (CPD) courses that will improve outcomes for your pupils?
Our workshops and accredited training courses are ideal for engaging secondary and primary Teaching Assistants, School Governors and other support staff in a ‘whole school’ approach to literacy development.
During our training we’ll discuss the best strategies for helping pupils with poor reading skills and low confidence whilst raising staff morale and consolidating good teamwork.
Reading Teams training improves the teaching of reading and understanding of key elements such as phonics and reading comprehension to enable more staff to be involved with supporting reading development.
A recent participant commented, “A very enjoyable, informative and useful training session – helped me to address situations which have arisen when supporting reading”.
Please follow this link for full details about our Reading Teams courses and how they will help to raise literacy attainment in your school.
