How the Write Stuff aligns with The Writing Framework. If your school is a Write Stuff school, or have adopted Jane Considine's systems, you will already be using almost all of the guidance contained in the Writing Framework. Here's how. A thread.

10. PUTTING THEIR WRITING INTO THE WORLD Pupils need to feel that their writing matters. The Write Stuff gives real audiences and real purpose. Sharing, responding and celebrating writing builds motivation. #writestuff #writingmatters

9. SEEING THE PATTERNS Spelling improves when pupils can spot how words work. The Spelling Books support a structured, phonics-based approach all the way to Year 6. #writestuff #spellingbooks #phonics

8. HANDWRITING FLUENCY When handwriting flows, writing improves. The Write Stuff keeps transcription in view, building speed, fluency and confidence so pupils can focus on ideas. #writestuff #handwriting #primaryeng

7. COHERENT TEXTS USING LEGO-LIKE PLANNING Writing needs structure. The Write Stuff uses clear planning that pupils can return to again and again. It’s simple and consistent, like building with Lego. #writestuff #writingcurriculum

6. MASTERY NOT MYSTERY Thinking aloud. Talking. Drawing. Drama-ing for writing. The Write Stuff puts oral composition at the heart of writing. We don’t leave it to chance, we show pupils how meaning is made sentence by sentence. #thewritestuff #sentenceinstruction

5. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY Good writing isn’t about pages and pages. The Write Stuff focuses on sentence quality and manageable chunks of learning. Less overload. More clarity. Better writing. #thewritestuff #writingteacher

4. MODELLING IS SCAFFOLDING Pupils need to see writing being made. In The Write Stuff, the teacher models live, sharing decisions and showing the process and thinking out loud. It’s visible, deliberate and sharp. #thewritestuff #modellingwriting

3. POSITIVE WRITERS' IDENTITY Confidence grows when teaching is clear. Pupils taught through The Write Stuff make real leaps because they see their progress and feel proud of it. A strong writing identity starts here. #writestuff #primaryenglish
