2025-11-10 - 2026-11-30
Free online, on-demand training for early years practitioners
Are you supporting young children in the earliest stages of development and keen to lay strong foundations for reading? This free, practical training session is designed for early years professionals working with children before they start school.
What you’ll learn:

Supporting language and physical development: Discover how speech, movement, and early literacy are deeply connected. Learn practical ways to foster children’s communication and physical skills to prepare them for reading.
Building phonological and phonemic awareness: Explore how to help children tune into sounds, play with words, and develop the listening skills that underpin future reading success.
Understanding Sounds-Write phonics: Get introduced to the Sounds-Write approach, a proven, speech-to-print method for teaching phonics. Gain confidence in how this framework can support your practice, even before formal instruction begins.

Who is it for?
This session is perfect for childminders, nursery and pre k practitioners, playgroup leaders, and anyone working with children in the pre-school years who wants to nurture a love of language and prepare children for reading in a developmentally appropriate way.
