Such an inspiring speaker. Our young people had a fantastic experience and know their power in affecting change is limitless.

[Mrs Greeves @HelpMeMrsG]

I was delighted to meet Stuart Lawrence, brother of Stephen Lawrence. Yesterday marked the celebration of Stephen Lawrence day to raise awareness of miscarriages of justice. His inspirational words to our young people about their power in affecting change were hugely significant

Well done to H in S1 for collecting ten stamps - noting down the ‘word of the day’ and meaning after completing starter activities 👏🏻 🍬 #wordoftheday #eal

So important for the next generation of teachers to understand the vital role they have to play in developing literacy.

[Mrs Greeves @HelpMeMrsG]

Enjoyed 2 mornings with our @GCCProbationers discussing all things Literacy Across the Curriculum. A vital part of every teacher’s responsibilities and it’s clear there is already some excellent practice from our NQTs. The future is bright! @StAndrewsCLPL

Well done S3! Very proud of all your hard work! Keep it up.

[Mrs Greeves @HelpMeMrsG]

I was so impressed with my lovely S3 class this week who created storyboards and headlines to capture the essence of Edwin Morgan’s ‘Glasgow 5th March 1971’. Thank you @KeelanMelissa for coming to visit, they were so proud to show you their work.

A great example of disciplinary literacy - scaffolding writing in science with 'As...When...While' by @BenRogersEdu:
