In-school Development Days

What are Development Days?

Development Days are unique to Read Write Inc. They are proven to support reading teams to get every child to read. The more Development Days you book, the greater the impact. Our Standard Package includes two days, but you can upgrade to have more.  

A Development Day is your day and is bespoke to your school. The trainer works with the Reading Leader, headteacher and reading teachers on a normal school day, focusing on children who need extra support. We gain feedback after every day, so we know how much schools value these days.  

Development Days are available as part of our Ruth Miskin Training packages, found under Training/Programmes in the navigation bar.
