The achievement gap between children entitled to pupil premium and other children nationally is closing and Talk for Writing, with its emphasis on feedback, collaboration and meta-cognition, has been key to this improvement. Talk for Writing principles and practice are now firmly embedded across the school and have impacted positively upon standards in reading and writing, leadership practice across a range of areas and the development of an approach to CPD with research at its heart. The school benefits from buildings and grounds that have been purposefully designed to support learning for children and adults alike. 85% of children have English as an Additional Language and mobility is high. Penn Wood Primary and Nursery School in Slough is a large, culturally diverse school.
