Based on Ofsted’s Strong Foundations document, the recording explores the essential building blocks of English teaching, including:
- Executive function
- Communication and language
- Early reading
- Early writing
It is designed for teachers and subject leaders working across Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
It draws on the Simple View of Reading and the Simple View of Writing to help educators understand how foundational knowledge supports long-term literacy success.
Things to consider
- Recordings last between 10 and 30 minutes and include short breaks for tasks or reflection.
- To maximise the learning experience, we recommend delivering each recording as part of a one-hour CPD session, INSET day, or staff meeting.
- All recordings will remain available until 31 August 2026 and can be revisited as often as you wish.
- All sessions can also be delivered face to face or combined to provide a half /full day training opportunity for staff in your school, Network, Trust or LA. Get in touch if you would like to explore options.
