Amazing
This training was fantastic. Really made me think and reflect on ways to improve. Just brilliantly honest and straight to the point.

Phonics Phase 1 planning
This is great we have printed it out and we use daily for the Nursery children for a short Phonics activity. It has saved me loads of time and is really well thought out and each activity is clearly explained so the staff know what to do. Each time they teach Phonics they are becoming more confident with presenting.
