C. Haines, St George’s First School, Ready Steady Write Inset Day, 2025
“I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for the fantastic three days of literacy training Jo provided at the beginning of this term. The sessions were incredibly useful and informative, and your friendly approach made the experience even more enjoyable. All the staff have commented on how the training will enhance their provision. As the writing lead, I came away with an abundance of great CPD, clear direction, and valuable resources that will undoubtedly support me in my role. Thank you once again for your dedication and expertise. We are excited to implement what we've learned and look forward to seeing the positive impact on our literacy teaching.”
