Yearly Curriculum Overview.
We use the "Floppy's Phonics" scheme for the teaching and learning of phonics throughout Year 1, with particular focus on completing Phases 3, 4 & 5 knowledge and understanding. For further information, please follow this link.
To support the teaching of Reading we have fidelity to one scheme, provided by ORT, that has direct links with the phonics teaching and learning, and is designed to help children develop their phonic knowledge, comprehension and speaking & listening skills.
Alongside this, children read for pleasure regularly and also in guided sessions, where the focus is on developing the specific reading content domains.
