Reading Ambition for all

Teaching all children who need the most support, including those with SEND

This is a brand new DfE programme, launched for this academic year. This programme will enable participants to become familiar with the principles for how to teach all children to read and how to use this guidance and resources from their own SSP programme.

Let’s get all children reading!

Programme details

The Reading Ambition for All programme has been developed by drawing on expert advice from disability charities, leading academics, the EEF, validated SSPs, school leaders, practitioners, Ofsted, the reading framework, the SEND code of practice and wide evidence base.

Participants will attend all five sessions and complete gap tasks in between sessions. All sessions are free of charge and will be held at Lacey Green Conference Centre.

These five sessions will cover:

1.The guiding principles of teaching SEND in mainstream school

2.Understanding children’s needs; ensuring access to learning

3.Adaptive teaching and appropriate adaptations to use in class

4.Leading reading: High expectations for every child; using assessment to create specific and effective support using your SSP programme

5.Supporting children with a more complex SEND

Programme Aims

• to improve outcomes for children who need additional support with reading, including those with SEND

• to ensure that all children receive quality-first teaching based on the latest research into how children learn to read

PLEASE NOTE - All delegates will be expected to attend all sessions. It is essential you have your head teachers support before signing onto this programme and ensure you can be released from school, and have the capacity to attend for ALL SESSIONS.
