COLLECTIVE LEARNING LIVE VIDEO STREAMED COURSE, Effective Progression of Continuous and Enhanced Provision

LIVE ONLINE VIDEO STREAM: NEW ‘What does Donaldson look like in KS2?’

Course date: 24th Mar 2021

 

In his ‘Successful Futures’ Report the ethos, principles and pedagogy of the current Foundation Phase was identified as a significant strength of current educational practice in Wales. It was recommended that schools build on successful ‘Foundation’ practice, philosophy and pedagogy into the middle and later years of primary education and beyond. How this works in practice needs to be carefully managed to ensure that transition issues are removed and progression is ensured.

To give as real an experience as possible, the course will be filmed and broadcast live on the day. You will be invited to attend via an email link to an easily accessible platform, and our technicians will be on hand to guide you through the process.
