The school are pleased to announce we are updating our approach to Phonics and the teaching of reading over the next 12 months. The school has secured funding to develop this area greatly over this coming year. The scheme we are now going to start using is called Read Write Inc. The roll out of the programme will take a couple of terms. Please see the outline below:

Step 1 – securing the resources and organisation – Completed by the end of November

Step 2 – initial whole training – by the end of this term

Step 3 – completion of the baseline assessments – by the end of November

Step 4 – begin using Read Write Inc as our phonics approach in school – beginning of January

Step 5 – Second day of whole school training – by the end of February

Step 6 – Read Write Inc securely in place by the summer term

Parents will be provided with various workshops next term to ensure you are fully aware of the approach and ideas for how you can support school from home. Read Write Inc has a very strong track record in improving standards across school in phonics and reading. With the funding the school has secured we are very pleased to be able to access this programme.

We look forward to seeing how this approach really improves reading for everyone in school.
