Phonics
In EYFS and KS1 we follow the Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised programme. Click the image below for more information
Towards the end of Year 1, children will take part in a Phonics Screening Check. This is a short, statutory assessment for Year 1 pupils in England designed to confirm if they have learned phonic decoding to an age-appropriate standard. It involves reading 40 words (a mix of 20 real and 20 pseudo/“alien” words) one-on-one with a teacher to assess their ability to blend sounds. The check identifies students needing extra support and ensures consistent, high-quality phonics teaching. If a child does not meet the standard in Year 1, they will re-sit the check in Year 2.
