This planning programme has been developed, continuously evaluated and refined, using the expertise of experts at LPDS, and feedback from Year 4 practitioners in schools.

The package cost is £250 and includes CPD for two half days, and the full planning programme for one delegate.

The planning programme includes a yearly progression of the curriculum for Year 4 spelling based on the National Curriculum, half termly overviews, planning for 3 x sessions per week, word banks, and games and activities. The programme planning also ensures an effective transition from Red Rose Y3 Spelling into Red Rose Y4 Spelling.
