After-School Online Workshop Series (5 Weeks): What to Expect

Learn to implement PLD’s evidence-based Structured Synthetic Phonics (SSP) programs in Foundation, Year 1 and Year 2 gaining the knowledge, tools and processes to implement explicit, systematic instruction that builds strong early literacy foundations across the junior primary.

These after-school workshops are delivered weekly during the school term as five (5) x 90 minute online sessions, one week apart. These sessions are designed to fit in and around teaching time, minimising classroom disruption, allowing for a guided implementation of SSP using PLD with follow-up coaching support each week.

Learn - Apply - Coach

The weekly sessions create a practical implementation window: participants have the opportunity to apply PLD assessments in their own classroom, analyse classroom data and build a personalised, term-ready plan using a three-tiered teaching model.

In between sessions, participants trial the implementation of PLD's daily routines and return for coaching-style feedback, support, and next-steps planning, ensuring the seminar translates into practical, in-class application. With a structured approach covering assessment, planning and implementation, this workshop ensures a thorough understanding of PLD’s evidence-based literacy strategies, giving educators the confidence to refine their practice, with support at each step.

Sessions run weekly during term time (online only): 3:45pm - 5:15pm AEST
