The SFE Adviser was lovely and incredibly personable. Her delivery was clear, calm and concise and it was very reassuring how she went through all the stages of the training leaving plenty of room for reflection and discussion. I really enjoyed the session with SFE and have taken back lots of pointers to include in my wider teaching practise.

A very informative half day of training delivered by Services For Education. The adviser catered the training for our school and its needs. The staff came away feeling more confident to embed the text centred approach to writing in our school. Having Emma’s pedagogical knowledge, helped us realise why we have selected this approach for our children. Staff were overwhelmingly positive.

Georgina Holland, Assistant Head Teacher, St Barnaba

The SFE Adviser was knowledgeable, supportive and set out the expectations clearly. She has supported me to know what my focus needs to be as I return to school, in terms of writing and moderation.

A very thorough and informative day. It was really useful to gain a solid understanding of the assessment statements before applying this to other people’s writing. Thank you!
