  • Phonics Mastery:

    Utilise your knowledge of Phonics (e.g., Read Write Inc, Jolly Phonics, or Little Wandle) to boost reading confidence.

  • Classroom Management:

    Quickly build rapport with new groups of children, maintaining a calm, productive, and safe learning environment.

  • Adaptive Teaching:

    Differentiate tasks on the fly to support pupils with diverse needs, ensuring every child stays on track with the day's objectives.
