Opening Doors in Ambitious Primary English Bob Cox

We are often asked for recommended reading ideas so we are now making it a feature of our monthly newsfeeds.

With the upcoming Opening Doors event run by Bob Cox, it is a timely reminder of his brilliant book on Ambitious Primary English. It provides both big principles and a toolkit of strategies all carefully selected to support the design of a deeper, more creative, and more expansive English curriculum but it also has many ideas for stretch for all learners.
