Question 1: To what extent does the proposed progression guidance improve your understanding of how to support learners’ progression in literacy, including supporting development towards progression step 1?

 

Question 2: To what extent do you think the proposed progression guidance is relevant and appropriate for understanding progression for learners with additional learning needs?

 

Question 3: How useful do you find the proposed progression guidance in supporting curriculum design, teaching and learning?

 

Question 4: In striking a balance between clarity, professional autonomy and workload, how would you describe the level of detail provided in the progression step tables?

 

Question 5: Do you agree with our approach to organising the information by progression steps with typical indicative year groups? (We welcome suggestions of alternative approaches if you have a view on this.)

 

Question 6: Is the additional detail suitable to support practitioners in teaching other subjects to understand what children need to learn in literacy and when to embed this across the curriculum?

 

Question 7: How clear and helpful is the introduction section of the guidance?

 

Question 8: How clear and helpful is the introduction to each progression step?

 

Question 9: How clear and helpful is the progression step tables content under the heading: ‘Practitioners should’?

Please comment on:

  • whether the content provides useful support for practitioners
  • whether it is best used for planning, diagnosis or another purpose
  • whether it could unintentionally be interpreted as a checklist or as level criteria

 

Question 10: How clear and helpful is the progression step tables content under the heading: ‘Learners are confidently and reliably’?

Please comment on:

  • whether the content provides useful support for practitioners
  • whether it is best used for planning, diagnosis or another purpose
  • whether it could unintentionally be interpreted as a checklist or as level criteria

 

Question 11: What professional learning, exemplification, resources, assessment support or guidance would support effective implementation of the proposed literacy progression guidance?

 

Question 12: What impact do you think the proposed changes would have on your workload, both during implementation and on an ongoing basis? Please explain any positive or negative impacts and any steps that could help to avoid or reduce additional workload. We are particularly interested in:

  • the impact on you now and over the next 12 months
  • the likely impact after 12 months
  • what could be done to mitigate the impact
