We recommend you complete an Evolve Day every 2-3 years with ELS.

Evolve Days are in-school training days, taking place during a normal school day. We will observe teaching, coach teachers both within the classroom and outside of the classroom, look at data, support you with identifying your key next-steps and leave you with a report that provides a plan for continued success with ELS.

Along with your Reading Lead, our ELS Expert will deep-dive into your ELS practice and identify areas of strength and areas for improvement to ensure the best outcomes for your children. Our report is based on the key Ofsted criteria, identifying where you are on your phonics journey and allowing you to move forward with purpose.

An INSET day is always designed around the school’s needs.

Examples of bespoke INSET days we've held:

* How to use ELS within a specialist settings.

* A day focused purely on the structure of the programme, taking a deep-dive into the ELS teaching style and progression. Taking the time to model and practise teaching the lessons and interventions with your team.

* A day split into two halves for schools who have been using the programme for one year or more. A refresher of the ELS programme in the morning followed by data analysis and next steps in the afternoon.

* A day of training with specific teams within the school.

Multiple schools can attend one session - please enquire for further details

Schools may opt for the online module training to take place as a full day, in-person INSET with one of our phonics experts.

This would include:

* Embed - The Theory & Pedagogy behind ELS

* Enact - How to deliver ELS

* Enable - Intervention: how to ensure all children keep up rather than catch up
