Product reviews for Opening Doors to Ambitious Primary English

‘A rising tide gathers all ships.’ Every learner, no matter their starting point, has the right to ambitious teaching at the highest level. As the Opening Doors programme clearly demonstrates, excellence for all can be truly inclusive and gives every pupil the chance to maximise their potential. 

If the Opening Doors programme provides the framework for inclusion in the classroom, this book helps all those involved in primary education to unlock that door in their teaching practice. Bob Cox and his team's passion and enthusiasm for all aspects of English jump out of its pages. The book offers a blueprint along with suggested approaches, ideas and resources to deliver ambitious reading, writing and oracy teaching in schools. 

Enjoyment of reading is a lifetime gift, and this book will enable you to light the spark leading to growing skills, confidence, enthusiasm and achievement in all aspects of English, even in the most reluctant learner. As important, this book will take you, the professional, on a journey which will reinvigorate your passion for exploring new texts, authors and teaching approaches in the classroom. I thoroughly recommend it.
