"The positive vibe around the school is amazing and today I am experiencing it myself as my Deputy is out and I have led the big writing with her class. I wish I taught all the time!"
Nik Smith, HT, St Peter's CEP School, Kent
"The Big Writing has had, and continues to have a significant impact upon all of the children. We thank you for your involvement because without it we would have struggled to have made the progress that we have."
Steve Bartlett, HT, Love Lane Primary School, Isle of Wight

Ros Wilson has over forty-two years experience in education, including twenty-seven years in schools, ten years in Senior Management positions and fourteen years in advisory and inspection work. She has taught in primary, middle and secondary schools in England and overseas, and has wide experience in teaching and advising on raising achievement for pupils with English as an additional language and also pupils with special educational needs.
Ros has a Masters Degree in Education, specialising in assessment. As Education Adviser for the curriculum and assessment, her work on classroom management and organisation through a child-centred approach to education, positive reinforcement, raised self-esteem, and empowering pupils in the learning process has been published on several occasions. She also co-wrote and published the original Kirklees 'Formative and Summative Assessment of Writing' (1998), and the original Kirklees 'Primary Curriculum Organiser'.
Ros's second publication, 'Strategies for Immediate Impact on Writing Standards', has been a revelation to those who have seen it. The feedback from schools and advisors alike has been extremely gratifying, but she takes most pleasure from the results realised by schools employing her methods. On average, schools applying the methods detailed in Ros's books have realised an improvement of more than three levels.
Ros’s latest publication, ‘Write on Target’ was published in May 2006 and builds on the previous publications, ‘Raising Standards in Writing’, (2002) and ‘Strategies for Immediate Impact on Writing Standards’, (2003).
Ros now focuses on writing and her consultancy, 2020 Vision in association with Andrell Education, specialising in training, advising and supporting in schools. She is an articulate and humorous trainer who consistently provides entertaining but focused and informative advice that is specific and current. She is also a thoughtful and thorough researcher, who maintains direct contact with children and teachers, working in classrooms to ensure her advice and materials are relevant. She especially values her involvement in supporting Head Teachers in both the UK and overseas.
For those of you fortunate enough to attend one of Ros's training days, we have included three pictures of "The most beautiful and intelligent grandchildren in the world" to allow you to put faces to the tales you were forced to endure!
