This session is part of a series of CPD sessions, aimed at developing effective classroom pedagogies to impact learning and teaching across the strands of Primary English

Taking Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction, which many schools have been using to reflect on and develop classroom practice, this series of sessions will consider how each of the principles can be applied to develop effective teaching in the English curriculum to impact pupils’ learning and outcomes.

Participants will:

• develop an understanding of how learners learn and the associated principles for best practice
• explore research-based, effective pedagogies for impactful learning and teaching
• consider how such approaches can be successfully applied to the teaching of Primary English
• acquire practical classroom strategies to impact pupils’ learning in all year groups

Target audience:
