Massive well done to you and the team Andrew. Perseverance & and being ambitious for all children certainly pays off. 💪
In 2017, we began our journey to build a school around our 3 pillars -
Exemplary behaviour
Knowledge-rich curriculum
and
Explicit teaching
The KS2 outcome below was something we could only dream of when we started, but I’m pleased to say that perseverance pays off...

Following a few requests from teachers and school leaders, I've made a short video on the key ideas that I think teachers (and parents/carers) need to know about reading development, based on my reading concept map.

This is an excellent question with some really insightful responses, I’m now making more lists of things to read and ponder.
For me, it’s not so much one specific piece of research but engaging with the wider education community through Twitter opened my eyes and changed my practice forever!

With the big #rED24 event this weekend, I’d love to know:
What is the edu research that most changed your practice, how you think about education, and/or that you come back to most often?
I have few that I always return to but would love to know others’!
