Event Summary As reported recently by Ofsted, fluent transcription skills are a building block for more complex writing challenges. In this webinar we explore ways in which teachers can ensure these foundations are firmly in place by the end of KS1.
Event description Recent reports from Ofsted (Ofsted English Report and Ofsted English Research Review) highlight the importance of fluent transcription skills as a building blog for more complex writing challenges. During their inspections they often observe pupils' who are being expected to complete writing tasks without the skills needed to do so.

In this webinar we explore a range of strategies and ideas aimed at putting the necessary foundations in place. This will include a focus on handwriting, spelling and sentence writing skills.

Although primarily aimed at YR and KS1 this course may also be useful to those leading on English or who are supporting pupils who are working below age related expectations in writing in KS2.
