Transforming Writing: Interim Evaluation Report

Transforming Writing is a two-year action research project, sponsored by Esmée Fairbairn, which aims to develop a model for the teaching and learning of writing that more fully incorporates a focus on embedded formative assessment. In the first year of the project, the 12 participating schools developed a model of writing underpinned by Talk for Writing, an approach developed by Pie Corbett and Julia Strong. This interim report, written by Jonathon Rooke from the University of Winchester, evaluates to what extent the model of writing developed by the teachers during the first year of research impacts on children’s writing in terms of attainment, confidence and engagement.
