About the course

In most schools, writing can be a problem for the youngest children. This could be because the provision is not quite right to meet the wide and varied needs of all the children in class. Children develop at different rates and learn in different ways and teachers need to provide different things at different times for each child. So, how do we do this?

This course will enable you to critically evaluate your provision for teaching early years children to write. It will enable you to look at the process of noticing, diagnosing, responding and teaching and will help you to think about the timetables and layout of your classroom to help you to deepen understanding and skills around writing.

You will also evaluate your provision for reading and look at the quality of your curriculum to help you to meet your children’s needs thinking about memory, barriers, SEND and EAL and how to support all children. It will look at boys writing and how to encourage reluctant writers.

The course cost is £50 and includes a downloadable curriculum.

I really enjoyed completing this course. It has given me a lot of food for thought during the half term break. When returning to my classroom I am going to reflect on the areas of provision and think about their why. The course contains lots of knowledge gems on how to progress early writing.
