As part of the school’s continued investment in literacy and numeracy support initiatives, staff underwent training yesterday in relation to the new Toe by Toe programme that will be rolled out from September 2021 in Sacred Heart P.S.
Toe By Toe is a small red book designed for anyone who finds reading difficult. This includes weak readers who struggle to decode or those with dyslexic difficulties. Pupils make progress by the tiniest steps – one toe at a time. However, even though the steps taken are small, students can clearly measure progress right from the first page. Confidence and self-esteem are boosted as a result.
Many thanks to our SENCO Miss Laura Murray for organising the training and to Mr Bill Lynch for facilitating it.
