Reading and Phonics

In 2013 we revised our approach to teaching Literacy in Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 by introducing the Read, Write Inc Scheme.

Read Write Inc., developed by Ruth Miskin, provides a structured and systematic approach to teaching literacy. It is used by more than a quarter of the UK’s primary schools and is designed to create fluent readers, confident speakers and willing writers.

Each Read Write Inc. programme meets the higher expectations of the new national curriculum and uses effective assessment to accelerate every child’s progress.

Since the introduction of RW/Inc our standards have risen sharply.  The majority of our children have completed the programme by the end of Year 1 and there is a structure in place for those children who need more teaching in Year 2 and above.

 If you have any questions about our reading scheme or want to know more about how you can help your child with reading at home, please ask your child’s class teacher.
