Our Ethos
We strive to make the teaching of spelling both enjoyable and purposeful. It is our hope that no child will leave school with gaps in their spelling knowledge but instead embark on the next steps along their educational journey full of confidence and ambition. Our aims include:
- embedding knowledge
- developing personal spelling strengths
- stimulating curiosity about word discovery
- promoting responsible application during independent learning
- testing playing a reduced role
- developing vocabulary
- removing fear
Our approach to reading aims to engage the children through using quality texts, understanding characters and the development of plots. Find out how you can help your child develop more as a reader, when reading with your child at home, by taking a look at our 5 Ps flyer below...
