What a great day yesterday at the launch of the Argyll and Bute pilot for the early acquisition of literacy in primary 1. A fantastic group of teachers from\u00a011\u00a0 schools across the authority engaged with the draft guidance and had valuable learning discussions with partner schools and the whole group. In particular discussions focused around planning for the learning environment, working effectively within multi composite settings and how to implement the guidance over the next year. We also had excellent presentations on engaging readers with texts, sensory phonics and writing and parental engagement.<\/p>\n
The Guidance will remain in draft format for the next year, during which time we will gather resources and evidence of impact.\u00a0\u00a0Introductory workshops on the guidance will be held in all clusters over the next\u00a0session to support its implementation across the authority in 2018-2019. Meanwhile, the guidance is available for any school to read, comment on and work with within their own settings. Any comments on it should be emailed to Clare Bryden, PT Literacy.
