Good evening everyone! We hope you're having a fantastic week so far. Here at DU, we've been busy converting our reading materials to a non-cursive script and producing reading teaching slides for every text we provide.

The team have also been creating the last of our 'Ready to Progress' maths resources. We can't wait to get these online for you!

In other EXCITING news, we've decided to run a SPECIAL PROMOTION until the end of November for our annual Personal Pass subscribers. Read all about it below...

During November 2021, we are running a SPECIAL PROMOTION for our Personal Pass subscribers. If you have an annual Personal Pass that is due to expire before February 2022, and you successfully persuade your school to sign up for a Team Pass, we will refund the time remaining on your current subscription AND send the first 20 subscribers a ?25 Amazon gift card as a thank you for upgrading!*

Once your school has signed up, send an email over to us at [email protected] to claim your reward.

*Please note that this offer excludes any upgraded pass smaller than a 1-Form (6 user) School Team Pass. You must also be a current subscriber with an annual subscription as this promotion is not valid for pay monthly memberships. Your Amazon voucher and refund will be generated when your school has paid.

Since it's Remembrance Day on Thursday, we thought we should bring your attention to the excellent reading comprehensions we have that are linked to World War 1.

Each text comes with a variety of retrieval, vocabulary and inference questions to help your pupils deepen their understanding. The KS2 comprehensions also come with our fantastic teaching slides to enhance your reading sessions even further. 

Follow the links below to download the relevant pack/s ahead of Remembrance Day...

Year 2: Animal Friends in World War One
LKS2: The Christmas Truce
UKS2: In Flanders Fields

Our subscribers have access to NRICH problem solving tasks exclusively written for DU by Ems Lord, Liz Woodham and all of the primary team at the University of Cambridge! We also offer a selection of reproduced NRICH problem solving tasks which we fully encourage the use of alongside our 'Progression in Mastery' range, in addition to signposted CPD articles.

Make the most of your DU subscription and this incredible collaboration by heading to deepeningunderstanding.co.uk and exploring the NRICH tab! 

If you require any assistance, our friendly team are available via [email protected]

Take care and enjoy the rest of your week!
