Phonics and Reading

We strive to ensure that all children become successful, fluent readers by the end of Key Stage 1 and believe this is achievable through a combination of high quality, discrete phonics teaching, combined with a whole language approach that promotes a reading for pleasure culture.  

 

Our aim is to provide our children with an ambitious curriculum which is rich in opportunities to learn and explore vocabulary.

 

To do this we ensure our reading curriculum is balanced, coherent and progressive, helping children to make connections between different subjects and experiences. We also ensure our reading curriculum is inspiring whilst remaining appropriate to individual needs and focused on teaching the most important knowledge and skills within subjects.

 

St Joseph's Catholic Primary Academy follows Little Wandle Letters and Sounds as its Systematic Synthetic Phonic and Early Reading scheme with fidelity.
