What people say about Precision Teaching Plus
School Staff Training CPD
If you were to recommend PT+ to another school or teacher, what would you say to them?
Obtain great results, with recognised strategies within time frames that give the children confidence to believe they can and a strategy for learning that staff can easily monitor and can easily tweak by instant data access and interpretation, a win win for everyone.
It's an accessible and relatively short training course that will give in-depth understanding of PT. Linked resources are great.
That it is a great technique to really break down tasks and support skill building in a constructive and easy to assess way.
Don't miss out! A fantastic programme of support that is committed to a child's enjoyment in learning and can be easily followed within school.
I'd highly recommend PT+ to anyone else (in fact I already have).
It's a great program that can be completed in your own time at your own pace, to ensure maximum understanding.
Give it a try and see the impact it has on the children.
Give it a go. If done correctly, the results will speak for themselves.
Easy to set up, takes limited time and works.
It is a powerful tool that gives a lot of possibilities for a child to progress.
Great resources, in-depth theory and additional support and advice on hand when you need it.
Try it out; once you have the right framework (which I believe that this course provides) you will find that it requires minimum time or resources.
PT+ offers bespoke interventions in a quick and easy to deliver format with easy to use resources.
I would definitely explain how easy this program is to implement and to monitor. Bonus is the fact that data can be quickly analysed making tracking progress easy to collect.

PT+ makes precision teach easier to deliver as it provides the templates for the probes and charts. The programme really makes clear the "why" of what we use precision teach and not just the "how".
Emphasize how quick PT really is. It's a fact that our biggest issue is time, PT is by far the most effective way to target what the child is stuck on.
The course is amazing and I feel so excited to start it. I have done PT before and it really shows an improvement for the children. But PT+ will be that extra step to help the children.
Excellent. Great for keeping children motivated. Specific differentiated learning to individual children. Builds self esteem and children want to improve and love feed back and praise they have. Excellent way of tracking individual progress, but also reviewing own teaching and expectations of pupils.
It is good. You must try it.
Please give it a go and try the strategies.
It makes sense, give it a go.

Recently I have discovered a new teaching method which can benefit children who need extra support at school to catch up with their learning e.g. Spelling, maths, reading.
It is an engaging and motivating method that allows for progress to be seen in small incremental steps.
I would like to introduce you to a PT+ programme, this gives opportunity for children to progress in their education or subject that they maybe struggling with.
PT+ has provided our staff with a good understanding of both the theory and the practicalities of Precision Teaching. The time-saving resources have enabled staff to get started straight away in a clear and manageable way.
PT+ looks like an effective tool to deliver daily intervention to children to increase their skill development, keeping children motivated and engaged on the way. If it isn't pitched or aimed at correctly at the individual child then this can be easily changed according to need. Once trained the model of PT+ is easy to follow.
PT+ training is quick and informative, resources are available to download and look through at your own speed. This will have an impact on the way that I work with students, record progress and plan sessions.
Helpful intervention, useful resources and easy, quick data to monitor progress.
An informative and detailed course.
It is useful as it shows the progression through a quick and easy made graph.
It gives a clear structure of how it works and you can refer back to the videos if you need to.
Use the online training, it can be done in your own time and the resources are great.

It is fun and keeps the children engaged.
Would recommend as fast and easy to use and will get results.
It's a very accessible guide to PT.
PT+ is a very useful short programme to focus a child's efforts on a specific skill. It shows them that they can improve and succeed with practice. The individual session with a supportive adult may reduce anxiety about learning and is an essential part of the programme for building confidence and self-esteem.
I would explain the benefits e.g. relatively short intervention time for brilliant results. Very enjoyable for the children.
The training is useful, clear and gives a great insight and I feel it is beneficial to know about even if you don't use it straight away.
It's a simple but effective intervention which is not time consuming or labour intensive in setting up.
It was very easy to access and understand as the videos were broken down to allow accessibility.
Excellent for keeping the children focused as the sessions are short and timed.
Follow instructions carefully, resources are provided get them ready in advance, make a bank.
A good programme, set out clearly and easy to use.
That is gives motivation and encouragement to the child, as they can see their progress immediately on the graph.
This is a program that is tailored to each child's individual needs.

Absolutely do it!
It works.
I haven't tried it but look forward to giving it a go and would recommend to other TAs it will be a great start to help some of the children we have.
All you need to know to be able to run a very effective intervention confidently that can be used to increase children's knowledge, skills and confidence in many different curriculum areas.
I would say this is a good way of teaching little ones from when they start school so by the time they do SATS in year 6, they are prepared.
I would say although I haven't actually put it into practice yet, this program is comprehensible and appears to provide targeted support for children who are struggling with a particular topic/subject area. It is precise and delivered in small steps to support retention.
What is the greatest benefit of PT+ for schools, teachers and children?
Breaking learning down into small, attainable chunks is really important to learners that struggle to retain new learning. I have always found showing learners how far they have come is really powerful in building motivation and self-esteem. The precision teach charts are a way that a child can see their success.
Children feeling positive about learning, building their confidence. Seeing positive learning outcomes for staff and children alike.
Greatest benefit would be enabling those children who are maybe struggling in certain areas improve and reach their full potential in such a straightforward, uncomplicated way.
Precision teaching allows teachers to easily adjust and tailor their approach to target specific areas that children need the most support with.
You see it working.
It can be easily personalised to meet very specific targets.
Accelerated learning.
Consistent, direct support in areas that need it.
The success of the child in this 1:1 learning time.
Identifying and targeting children with specific needs.
Being able to break down the learner in to small steps and to be able to go back and ensure maintenance.

Tailored to the specific needs of the children and focuses the teachers on manageable steps for progress with pupils.
Retrieval knowledge and allowing the children to physically see their progress over a short space of time, therefore improving their self-confidence.
Addressing specific gaps in learning and having a focused way to close these gaps.
Following the pandemic, PT+ supports a catch-up curriculum to support all children, especially those with specific learning difficulties.
Extremely easy to record and interpret the data/ progress of each learner.
Tailored to the specific needs of the children and focuses the teachers on manageable steps for progress with pupils.
It focuses on one child and targets that learning need.
I think it's really beneficial to understand why we are doing things as well as having a range of strategies to develop confidence and understanding.

Efficiency and efficacy, confidence boosting for children.
As it is a short intervention that doesn't require a great deal of resources it is a very accessible intervention for everyone!
Gain of knowledge, confidence, happiness and achievements of their goals.
I believe the greatest benefit in school will be closing the gaps in attainment amongst our children.

Focused, resourced and clear training! Teaching assistants are very enthusiastic to get started.
I feel it will be great at helping target specific children with specific needs and allow us to hopefully achieve some faster progress
Providing an intervention for children that are making minimal progress.
It will allow those who need extra help to get it , learning by rote is a good way to embed the basic.
Basic skills children as well as ALN children could have more opportunity to gain confidence and succeed in areas they may find challenging with daily, frequent and consistent practice.
A short, focused programme that makes staff think closely about the skills to be targeted. That practice helps to succeed can be an important message to convey to children who might struggle to know why their success takes more time and effort (than peers, perhaps).
It seems a great tool to support children that need that additional help to access what everyone has access to. Making it more fun at the same time with no pressure that can be in the classroom sometimes.
Short sharp engaging.
Short and effective with most pupils.
The set up.
Helping students who show lower ability compared to the rest of the class achieve and overcome a target they have struggled with for months. Being able to see the progress is a huge confidence booster not only for the students, but also for all staff members.
Short interventions are more beneficial as the child is more likely to engage in the full session before concentration slides.
Seeing the progression each pupil will make and to see their confidence grow.
It really works, children experience success, teachers can consolidate the learning in the classroom.
Helping children to feel more confident and retain information.
Recognising the gaps in basic skills and offering a way to bridge those gaps in order to carry on with the learning of new skills.
Supporting children, being able to identify children in need.
It's a complete programme to help children struggling on certain aspects of the curriculum.

I enjoyed the training very much. Having done precision teaching before, it was very beneficial to see how to interpret data in different ways and how to adapt teaching styles to benefit the styles of the child; to enhance and access their ZPD; to further inform practice. I also enjoyed the section on introducing more differentiated interactive teaching, to make it more fun for the children when using the reflective cycle to assess, plan and review progress. Thank you
Really well presented training , a great refresher for me. From previous experience I know how effective precision teach is.
