Talk for Writing

Another term, another gorgeous update to the @SandgateTfW Writing Wall. Every day's a busy day, but stopping to see the range of titles, styles, voices and independence is always, always worth it. @PieCorbett @JamieThomasTFW @Talk4Writing

✏️Lovely video from @PennWoodSchool in Slough – one of our Training Centres. Penn Wood is a 3 form entry school. 89% of children have English as an additional language & 37% receive Pupil Premium. 91% of the children reached the expected level in writing in the SATs using TfW.

Our lovely school doing what we love the most! #TalkforWriting

Teaching children to be writers is my absolute belief. Lovely to see the importance of oral rehearsal, grammar in context, and growing self-belief in The Writing Framework - all things that lie at the heart of what we do. @Talk4Writing assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/686bf943…

@BriarHillSch kindly opened up their doors to let us film their fabulous teachers and children in action. An opportunity to see @Talk4Writing in action where standards are through the roof, despite being in a challenging area.

A really rich day with the @Talk4Writing team. The rich work in EYFS is truly outstanding. To then hear the wisdom of @KateCainLU about reading comprehension was inspiring. Totally affirms everything we coming Talk for Reading and why it has such incredible impact. @PieCorbett

Extremely excited to finally have a copy of this in my hands. So many months of work. Cannot wait for teachers to get their hands on it to support their teaching of Talk for Writing. @Talk4Writing @PieCorbett

Kindness Day was a huge community success! Lots of amazing @Talk4Writing story telling with our new story areas and fairy doors. The children were kind and helpful, and we all worked together to progress our @OPAL_CIC journey. #Kindnesisoursuperpower @PieCorbett @JamieThomasTFW
