Secondary Resources

The DfE, is launching a new CPD programme: Unlocking Reading.

This free opportunity is designed to help state-funded secondary schools build knowledge, confidence and skills in supporting struggling readers, while embedding a whole-school approach to improving reading and attainment. 

The programme launches in January 2026, offering two staff members from each state-funded secondary school the chance to attend and network at a local, in person training session. This will be followed by access to a range of supporting online training modules tailored for school leaders, teachers and teaching assistants. These modules can be accessed and worked through to fit around individual work schedules.
