Writing Moderation
Focus: Curriculum
For: English leaders, Year 2 and Year 6 teachers
Description:
Aims of the Day:
- To develop a shared understanding of the national curriculum standards for writing at Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
- To provide teachers with practical strategies for evaluating and evidencing pupil attainment in writing.
- To ensure consistency in judgements within and across schools through collaborative moderation exercises.
- To empower participants to support colleagues in their schools with the moderation process.
This CPDF day will ensure participants leave with renewed clarity and confidence to assess writing rigorously and consistently, ultimately supporting improved writing outcomes for all pupils.
