Eligibility: This course is open to KS2 teachers and English Leaders from any junior or primary school.
This course helps teachers make the most of a book-led curriculum to strengthen reading, writing and spoken language outcomes. Grounded in research on dialogic teaching, reading for pleasure, and experiential approaches including drama and role-play, it explores how integrated text-based learning supports attainment, engagement and creativity.
On Day 1, delegates will explore a flexible planning approach through a high-quality text suited to KS2. The approach can be adapted to other texts, enabling teachers to create rich, bespoke learning sequences for their own classes.
The follow-up half-day is a collaborative workshop. With guidance from course leaders, delegates will work in small groups to plan a new teaching sequence using a text of their choice, applying the modelled approach.
Across both sessions, the course emphasises creativity, pupil motivation, and the interrelationship between reading and writing. Plans devised during the workshop will be collated into a shared resource pack for all delegates.
