What a privilege to watch Lucy Foster modelling @TalkforReading at Mulberry Academy St Leonards. Such rich conversation around this incredible picture book! One of the strengths of this training is seeing it first-hand in the classroom. There’s no better way to learn! @PieCorbett
A fabulous day building curriculum through rich picture books as part of our Talk for Reading project with Mulberry West St Leonards Primary and @PolegateSchool

Oral composition into writing - from an Eyfs described by Ofsted as phenomenal - and they are - joy, creativity and story-rich. Susie talks us through what they do. A must listen for all Eyfs teachers and all primary leaders!
One of our terrific talk for writing and reading centres. 100% - despite a challenging intake. Do visit to see just what can be done. No reaching for the next shiny new thing - working deeply which basics.
