RAISING WRITING STANDARDS
THE SUBJECT LEADER'S ROLE

This is a popular interactive one day course, designed for Early Years and Primary teachers new to the role of subject leader or for teachers who are looking for fresh approaches to raising standards of teaching and learning in relation to writing. The course will consider:

• the role of the subject leader
• a school audit of writing: a practical framework for considering factors such as current practice, resources, effective teaching and monitoring
• key elements of the writing process
• developing a talking and writing classroom with an inclusive pedagogy for boys: creating authentic situations for children to become engaged in meaningful learning activities, developing ideas through thinking, talking and writing in collaboration with peers and adults
• the reader in the writer: a closer examination of the integral role of quality texts in children's writing development
• rehearsals for writing using drama and role play
• writing across the curriculum
