Now that’s what I call High Quality Sentence Instruction! is CPD to support schools in the implementation of the above report published in July 2025. The input will directly relate to statements in the report and show how these can be incorporated into day to day practice.
Below you will find links to some of my other CPD offers available for the coming year. Sentence instruction ideas have been compiled from these courses which remain available in their own right. These are suggestions; all work is bespoke to the needs of the school or organisation.
