Very formal, able to engage and interact with the video which enabled me to pause and revisit different parts. Full of lots of information which can be applied with the children in the classroom to encourage and support their development.

I really appreciated the way this was presented. It was interesting, informative and refreshing. It really opens up a lot for teachers and leaders to discuss and reflect on so that the children receive as much support as possible in preparing to apply all of their KS2 knowledge. Thank you.
