IDL Overview for Teachers and Teaching Staff

At some point, you may have thought, “Can I make a real positive difference to a student’s English and maths skills in the limited time I have with them?”

Teachers Thoughts

“The children are really enjoying the IDL programme, and we can already see progress with those who are completing it regularly. The staff who lead the programme are confident with the process, and it is excellent that we can track completion of lessons in school and at home.”

Mrs Lucy Neal, Stocks Lane Primary School

“Pupils are really enjoying using the programme. The results with one particularly hard to motivate pupil has been amazing! The TA has grown in confidence too and is looking forward to running the programme for more children next year. It has been good to be able to run the programme with one TA for several children at once. We are expanding the programme to include a wider range of children with reading and spelling problems. I have recommended it to other SENCos at our cluster meetings.”

Janina Callery, Carter’s Charity Primary School

The increase in reading and spelling ability with our children is noticeable and within a relatively short period of time.
