Improving Writing

An evidence-based writing intervention designed to increase pupils’ skills and confidence.
Aimed at Key Stage 2 pupils with low prior attainment in writing, our evidence-based approach to improving writing supports teachers to build pupils' engagement with writing, developing their skills, confidence and enjoyment.
Our approach can be used across different text types in all subject areas and will support pupils through the whole writing process, from moving beyond a writing scaffold to self-assessment.
Improving Writing is under development, please sign up on our expression of interest form to be kept updated.
Participating pupils made approximately nine months' additional progress compared to similar pupils who did not participate in the intervention.
