Explicit teaching of writing - using learning journeys at KS3 and KS4
Section outline
-
The writing learning journey is the key HIAS planning approach used at KS2 and has demonstrated impact on the quality of children's writing over many years. Secondary colleagues have been less likely to spend the same amount of focused class time on the explicit teaching of writing, but the work of the KS4 writing working group collaboratively produced a range of writing learning journeys for KS4 and, after some adaptation, appropriate for KS3; these are now regularly in use in schools across Hampshire and have led to positive pupil outcomes in writing.
