Classroom sessions
Write Inspired classroom sessions are designed and delivered by Philip Davis. They are a unique form of CPD where staff can watch Write Inspired in action and see how joyous and inspirational writing can be. Sessions usually last about 1 hr for KS 1 and up to a whole day for KS 2. At the end of the day there is a Q and A with Philip to help teachers weave these practical techniques into their own practice. If you book more than one day you also have a twilight Inset for all staff to give you a deeper understanding of the rationale behind Write Inspired.
