The impact of IPEELL This scheme had a profound impact on the writing attitudes and skills of my Year 6 class. It helped lower-attaining children become aspirational; developed their ability to be analytical; and guided children through the writing process to become autonomous. Quite simply, it taught children who wouldn’t normally care to care deeply. This is why we implemented IPEELL throughout the whole of Key Stage 2 last September. Clare Frith Year 6 Teacher / KS2 Leader IPEELL has given students a solid framework to use as an effective planning tool for their writing. It has enabled them to identify exactly what they need to include in a particular task and become far more independent in their writing. Training students to create positive self-talk statements has contributed greatly to the increase in their self-confidence. We now use IPEELL across the school in all year groups and subjects. A great success mirrored through their achievement. Rachel Adams Assistant Headteacher, The Halifax Academy
