TeachBrief
Schools and early years settings play a vital role in children’s literacy
As part of our strategy, we want to ensure every child starts and leaves school with the literacy skills they need to thrive.
To help achieve this, we support schools through our evidence-based CPD programmes, enabling teachers and leaders to deliver outstanding literacy provision and improved literacy outcomes across early years, primary and secondary stages.
At TeachBrief, we will share insights and coverage from our CPD and conferences, with resources to support implementation and guidance on best practice in the classroom and early years setting.
Keep up to date with TeachBrief Live, our termly series of webinars connecting primary literacy leads with guidance, strategies and best practice to support whole school impact.
