Hi, what are ARReads doing in relation to tracking children through eyfs and year 1, 2 into 3? I'm looking for ideas to marry up the tracking.

Kirstie recently delivered some EYFS CPD with a very strong SLCN focus for Orgill English Hub. This was very well attended and received, and Wensum English Hub would now like to host the same CPD for schools and settings in their region. However, as the sessions will be virtual, they are opening this up to everyone. Please see the attached flyer for a bit more info. Kirstie has asked me to let everyone know that if they would like recordings of the training then you can contact her on kirstie.page@launchpadforliteracy.co.uk Thank you, Kirstie!
