This virtual workshop, led by Emma Adcock, Director of Training and Research, takes you step by step through the Early Reading Deep Dive process.

‘Inspectors must focus on how well pupils are taught to read as a main inspection activity. They will pay particular attention to pupils who are reading below age-related expectations (the lowest 20%) to assess how well the school is teaching phonics and supporting all children to become confident, fluent readers.’  Ofsted School Inspection Handbook 2021

The course is suitable for English and Early Reading Leads.

You will be equipped with the tools, techniques and strategies you need to drill down into your own Early Reading and Phonics provision.
