NCL 7th Annual Professional Learning Day

Friday 25 November 2022

Theme: ‘Litрacy and Numрacy in action’

The aim of the day is to strengthen numeracy and literacy practice by developing our
understanding of the role of automaticity, fluency, retrieval, recall, recap & revision in the
curriculum from EYFS to KS4.

A big thank you to all those colleagues from across the six schools who have supported
with:

● Arrangements and set up of our NCL Professional Learning Day

● Planning & facilitation of the programmes for the Collaborative Team Time
● The workshop programme
● Our Site and IT teams for supporting the smooth running of the day

We hope you find the day to be exciting, productive and inspiring!
