The Highland Literacy Group are co-ordinating four CPD events during inset on September 25th and 26th 2014.

Over the past two sessions, The Highland Literacy Group have been refreshing the support materials available to practitioners. We have updated our Probationer programme accordingly for the 2014/2015 session, and would like to offer supplementary training to complement the original HLP training programme. We are running two events called ‘Literacy Across Learning – Primary‘ on the CPD calendar which will introduce some of the new materials, including: Literacy Across Learning, Media Literacy and Higher Order Thinking.  These events are open to practitioners within the Primary sector.

Thursday 25th September 2014 – 09:30 – 15:30 – Merkinch Community Centre, Inverness
Friday 26th September 2014 – 09:30 – 15:30 – MacPhail Centre, Ullapool

During the September inset we are again offering ‘Big Writing’ – hosted by Big Writing trainer, Anne Glennie. The whole-day event aims to provide practitioners with a programme which can be used to develop writing, including guidance on learning, teaching and assessment. The course costs £37 per head, and can be found on the CPD calendar. These events are open to Primary and Secondary colleagues.

Thursday 25th September – 09:30 – 15:30 – Mount Pleasant Primary, Thurso
Friday 26th September 2014 – 09:30 – 15:30 – Inshes Primary School, Inverness
