Blanchelande College 2022 | Forged by Reading & Disrupting Thinking

[Darryl Toerien Keymaster]

On Wednesday 1 June, Jenny and I had an amazing opportunity to work with our colleague Jane Grange, who is Director of Studies at Blanchelande College, to present an INSET programme focussed on reading, and specifically on reading for learning.

This INSET programme was framed very powerfully by our Principal, Rob O’Brien.

The programme is as follows, and the three INSET presentations may be downloaded from the links:

• 8.45 Principal’s briefing
• 9:30 Forged by Reading (Jane Grange)
• 10:15 – 10:30 Break
• 10:30 Disrupting Thinking: Why How We Read Matters (Darryl Toerien & Jenny Toerien – some slides have explanatory notes)
• 11:15 – 11.30 Break
• 11:30 Disrupting Thinking: Why What We Read Matters (Darryl Toerien & Jenny Toerien – some slides have explanatory notes)
• 12:30 Call to Action (JG, DT & JT)
