Literacy Resources

This document takes the key principles of personalised learning as identified by Christine Gilbert in the 2020 Vision and expands upon each one.  These principles are;

• high quality teaching and learning                                                                                                 
• target setting and tracking
• focused assessment
• intervention
• pupil grouping
• the learning environment
• curriculum organisation
• the extended curriculum
• supporting children’s wider needs

For each section there is a rationale and then a how to do this well description ending with sources for further support.

Some of the work in here is not new.  For instance the section on target setting and tracking will be familiar to most Literacy Subject Leaders.  It focuses on layered curricular targets and tracking procedures to measure progress.  Please click on the links to see examples of layered curricular targets and pupil tracking sheets.
