📑 Taking back the true agenda for ‘Writing’ – the story of a PETAA learning ‘intensive’

a. Our school needs to build our teachers’ capacity to be teachers of writers.We need to complete a whole school language review and develop shared beliefs about teaching writing.

b. We need to find a process of building in sustainability. This means that there needs to be high quality sustained professional learning over time.  We need to be assessing, recording and reporting achievement and listening to student voice.

c. We need to give our students time to play with stories, to have time to write and to write for fun.
