A full day of CPD for primary school teachers in looking to revolutionise their teaching of reading, fluency and oracy!

Building Better Readers Through Better Teaching

Reading is the gateway to every area of learning.

Yet across England, schools continue to face the same challenges:

Pupils who can decode accurately but struggle to comprehend deeply.

Children who read fluently in isolation but cannot discuss or analyse what they have read.

Widening attainment gaps between the strongest and weakest readers.

Increasing demands on teachers' time and workload.

The challenge of ensuring every pupil can access ambitious texts and high-quality discussion.

This practical, evidence-informed conference brings together three of the most powerful drivers of reading success: Whole-Class Reading, Reading Fluency and Oracy alongside a teaching style and resource that has been proven to accelerate progress for all learners.

Designed specifically for primary teachers and leaders, the day will provide a complete framework for developing confident, capable and enthusiastic readers from Key Stage 1 through to Key Stage 2.

This is not a day of educational theory detached from classroom reality.

Every session is rooted in practical classroom practice, supported by research and illustrated through real examples from schools.

You will leave with strategies, routines and approaches that can be implemented immediately, and help your school achieve results like these...
