Phonics Online Training
We have an additional 50 phonics online training licences. Please consider this in PRD discussion and when allocating new classes. This is a great resource for new teachers into P1. If you have any staff who would like a licence, please ask them to email CLPL@scotborders.gov.uk and instructions will be sent on how to register.
This course is divided into 14 ‘modules’. Each module is sub-divided into lessons, or ‘parts’. Each ‘part’ contains a video tutorial, printable notes/video slides, links to downloads, additional video, resources, research papers and further recommended reading. Each ‘lesson’ in Modules One to Twelve should be completed systematically and the ‘quiz’/progress check completed before the student proceeds to the next lesson/part.
At any point during the course, the student may click on the ‘Contact Lesson Teacher’ or ‘Contact Course Teacher’ button for email support.
