"After a long break away from Y2, it was really useful to go through the National Curriculum expectations and to go over the LAPs and KLIPs for Year 2 again. I came away with lots of ideas that I will definitely be putting into place next year. An essential course for any Y2 teacher. Thank you!" A Y2 teacher
