Our vision for English
It is our intention when teaching the English curriculum that our pupils acquire the necessary knowledge, skills and understanding to become lifelong learners and linguists. We strive to ensure that all our pupils receive a well-rounded learning experience when reading, writing, speaking and listening which will equip them with the fundamental tools to achieve in the school and beyond.
Reading is at the heart of the curriculum with class texts chosen to ensure children experience a wide variety of texts, broaden vocabulary and understanding of grammar and allow children experience reading as a pleasurable experience which underpins all their learning across the curriculum.
The writing curriculum has been carefully designed so that our pupils develop their writing knowledge and understanding. We want all our pupils to remember their learning in writing in our school, to cherish these experiences and embrace the opportunities they are presented with.
"Reading is like breathing in, and writing is like breathing out."
Pam Allyn
