National Improving Writing Programme

The National Improving Writing Programme aims to improve writing attainment in identified P4 and P5 classes with a view to building an infrastructure for sustainable spread beyond the initial programme timeline.

Participants:

• Are supported to implement the components of a successful writing bundle
• Have the opportunity to learn skills and techniques to improve writing attainment in their classroom
• Gain Quality Improvement knowledge
• Have the opportunity to share insights and collaborate with practitioners across a national platform

Each participating cohort completes a 12-week quality improvement programme to reduce variation and increase outcomes in writing in their classroom.  Once implemented teachers monitor data and are responsive to class needs to maintain high quality delivery and outcomes.

This programme is delivered in partnership with Education Scotland.  Local Leads from each participating local authority are vital for the delivery and sustainability of this work.

We are delighted to be part of this and were even more delighted to be filmed earlier this year.  You can watch these videos here
