• Develop children’s composition skills and develop their skills in proof reading, editing and improving
• Teach the skills required to meet specific statements relating to narrative and non-fiction writing
• Plan engaging writing opportunities for children to apply taught skills independently
• Motivate reluctant writers using quality texts and invented/real audiences and purposes.

Suitable audience: Teachers in Year 6. This course is particularly suited to ECTs, teachers new to Year 6 and teachers looking for some new ideas to ensure children reach the Expected standard at the end of KS2.
