Re-designed for a term 2 start!

This series is centred on building individual and social capital as a leader of English in a primary school setting. These half day workshops will be held once in terms 2,3, and 4 and will engage Learning Leaders in practice exchange and stimulating professional dialogue about current and emerging best practices related to English learning, teaching and assessment. A highlight of these workshops will be hearing from guest presenters about approaches to teaching English in the primary setting.

  • English teaching and learning – planning and assessment
  • Sharing of classroom practice and English initiatives
  • Open discussion

In term 2 our guest presenter is Deb McKay.
