Phonics
In the Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1, children undertake a structured, daily, fun phonics programme to help them read and spell words. Our school uses the Oxford University Press, Essential Letters and Sounds programme. This is supported by our phonics based guided reading and home reading programmes. At the end of year 1, the children undertake a statutory phonics screening check.
We have added some useful links and websites to support your child's phonics at home:
