The Education People specialist advisers

Here to help!

  • Do you need to increase the capacity of your English or maths subject leaders? Or would you like support for new middle leaders?
  • Are you approaching inspection and want support to verify your strengths and areas for development in preparation for a deep dive?
  • Would your staff benefit from CPD from someone with strong subject knowledge, who is aware of the local and national context and latest research?
This is just an example of the types of support our specialist team routinely offer.

How we can support your ESL

  • Offer guidance on good practice in teaching phonics, regardless of your
    phonics programme, to share with all practitioners at your school.
  • Accompanying them on a learning walk and/or book scrutiny, to audit provision in phonics, reading or writing.
  • Map the progression in your reading or writing curriculum.

We can provide training on aspects such as:

  • improving spelling teaching and application
  • developing grammar knowledge with teachers and/or teaching assistants
  • reading and writing moderation - supporting the process at different points
    in the year

How we can support your MSL

  • Accompany them on a learning walk and/or book scrutiny to review the effectiveness of your maths curriculum.
  • Identify areas for development in subject and pedagogic knowledge.
  • Analyse your assessment systems and processes, with vulnerable pupils
    particularly in mind.

We can provide training on aspects such as:

  • using your scheme effectively to scaffold and stretch
  • deepening reasoning through representation
  • developing knowledge and understanding of bar modelling.

A half day’s support is likely to cost £330 (320 credits).
A twilight (up to two hours) starts at £300 (290 credits) for one school or £400 (390 credits) if two schools combine.
If your school requires a more bespoke training session the adviser will add preparation time at £95 (90 credits) per hour.
