No Nonsense Phonics Skills video listed in the 'Top 3'

I feel very honoured to find a recommendation via Twitter circulating, link below. I often consider that there isn't enough about actual phonics programmes and provision featured via Twitter.

We also provide a further 50% reduction for large-scale block-bookings for teacher-training universities and organisations.

This amounts to £10 + VAT per participant via the training organisation.
