Training and support – Hub Leads and Literacy Specialists
Gold service training – hub-funded
We work in partnership with Hub Leads and Literacy Specialists to ensure teachers in partner schools have everything they need to teach all their children to read.
NEW: One-day Advanced LS training – face-to-face
This is an exciting, dynamic training day with our specialist Hub team. It will include:
- analysing data for meaningful insights into progress
- live expert coaching across the full APC cycle
- supporting pupils with SEND to learn to read
- delving into the detail of each activity – focusing on the small things that will have the biggest impact
- bespoke practice time based on scenarios in your schools.
Choose from three dates across the year. Training will be in London at the RMT head office, close to Liverpool Street station.
One-day Data Day – face-to-face each term
Data Days equip Hub Leads and Literacy Specialists to plan effective data-driven Literacy Specialist days. Our trainer shares expert programme knowledge to:
- analyse data and agree agendas with partner schools
- set targets to accelerate progress
- agree assessment, practice and coaching actions
- coach on the activities that will make the biggest difference
- provide solutions for schools causing concern
- prepare for the Phonics Screening Check.
Data Days can be for primary or secondary schools, or for a combination of both.

Your feedback


“Data Days are an invaluable way to ensure we really ‘dig deep’ into what the data picture is and what this means for each of the individual partner schools that we support. The RMT trainers are incredibly skilled and knowledgable and ensure that we fully understand each assessment point and what we need to do next to keep moving children through the programme.”
Hub Lead, Jerry Clay English Hub
