Wanting to get staff up to speed on Working Together to Improve Attendance and the role they play in supporting reducing pupil absence? This training bundle, which is perfect for INSETs, staff meetings and twilights, contains engaging and collaborative training materials plus real-life attendance scenarios to meet your attendance CPD needs.
Each one contains a three-stage situation that mimics the types of attendance issues that schools may encounter.

Lastly, staff can view the resolution and consider the next steps.

Finance
Sickness-Related Absence
Substance Addiction
Young Carers

Looking to explore the primary Reading and Phonics in-depth and build confidence about an upcoming Reading Deep Dive? Tailored for primary English subject leaders, this bundle helps you to consider intent, implementation and impact questions when exploring reading and phonics, allowing you to consider areas of strength and weakness so you can plan for improvement and (if you feel you need to) prepare for Ofsted.
Included in the pack:
Reading and Phonics Deep Dive and Subject Evaluation Audit (Primary) - over 100 deep dive questions about both reading and phonics to ask stakeholders, including senior leaders, subject leaders, teachers and pupils. As a subject leader of English, reading or phonics, you can utilise these to reflect on the current picture of reading and phonics in your school and explore specific areas further when listening to staff and pupil voice. Many literacy subject leads find it useful to practise them with other leaders to build their own confidence in preparation for a Reading Ofsted deep dive.
Reading and Phonics Subject Knowledge Question Bank - content-specific questions for both reading and phonics covering EYFS, KS1 and KS2 . They’re ideal if you’re wanting to explore the finer details of staff members’ reading and phonics subject knowledge.
Deep Dive Process Overview - use this to structure your internal deep dive in early reading and phonics, working through the process of identifying your perceived strengths and weaknesses, observation and questioning, and creating a plan of action.

Whether you have an Ofsted inspection due or not, conducting an internal deep dive can help you to identify your subject’s strengths and weaknesses. Use it as a collaborative process that can support other staff members to develop and use your findings to report back to SLT, governors or trustees as part of your curriculum quality assurance.
