Absolutely essential reading 👇🏼 ⁦@teacherhead⁩ does it again.

Lots to takeaway including building solid routines, developing inclusive questioning and making all students think! 💭 https://t.co/nHGdWDLxM2

Led my first @WALKTHRUs_5 staff CPD today, focusing on building a culture of reading. Really positive session with lots to consider both whole school and for each faculty. @BCHSchool #reading #cpd #research

@clpe1 @KidsBloomsbury @BCHSchool would love these. Creating a reading space in school and these books would be amazing!
