Thank you for the incredible training. The feedback has been fantastic, with some staff members saying that it has been the best teacher training event they have ever attended. We have also been recommending you to our local primaries and will be talking to our feeder schools about the importance of this training.

Learn how to correct handwriting
Really helpful workshop. The books are fantastic and easy to use. The tweezer advice was also 5* – great tips from Sue!

With over 15 years of experience teaching handwriting to children, teenagers and adults, Sue Smits has expert knowledge on how legible handwriting is best achieved. Sue loves nothing better than sharing this knowledge with teaching staff, trainee teachers and parents.
The training delves through the root causes of handwriting problems and offers solutions to fix the scruffiest handwriting. The training explores childhood development and why bilateral integration, visual perception and motor skills are important for handwriting.
Sue is an expert at helping schools switch from the pre-cursive with the lead-in stroke and continuous cursive handwriting.
All of the training sessions are interactive, fun and are tailored to each school based on their individual needs. Sue can train a minimum of 2 to 500 adults, either after school or on inset training days. This can be virtually on Zoom or in-person following current government guidelines.

The training provided an excellent insight into the teaching of handwriting and how to teach it effectively in schools.

Parent workshops and school visits available
It is vital that parents understand how they can help with their child’s handwriting at home, so their child can receive the best support both inside and outside of school. It is for this reason that, along with our teacher training sessions, we at Morrells also offer handwriting workshops for parents in schools.
We can carry out a handwriting workshop at your school, which we have specifically designed to teach parents how they can support their child’s handwriting development at home.
These workshops can be carried out after school and will be offered free to schools that purchase the Morrells Handwriting books.
