The Communication Trust have published a range of resources to support their ‘no pens day’ across early years, primary, secondary and FE. Essentially, it’s a day where no writing takes place – all lessons focus on speaking and listening in an attempt to focus attention and resources on these key skills. While there’s a nominal date for this – the 4th October – a no pens day could be held at any time of year, several times if you wanted.
