Writing is my favourite because I enjoy expressing my ideas - it makes me happy! - Eva (Y6) I like reading Julia Donaldson books in particular because they're funny. - Penny (Y4) I enjoy when I remember things from last year - it makes it easier. - Alfie (Y1) For a closer look at our most recent Pupil Voice surveys for English, please click below: |

OUR READING CURRICULUM | |||
'The teaching of early reading is effective. There is a well-planned programme for teaching phonics. This means that pupils get off to a good start in their reading. Children enjoy listening and taking part in stories, poems and nursery rhymes'. - Ofsted 2019 |

What does English look like in EYFS? |
By building strong foundations in Literacy in the Early Years, we ensure that our children have the strong foundations needed to read our curriculum. |
Home Reading
Children must read at home regularly and as part of a balanced lifestyle. We expect our parents to support us in the celebration of home reading throughout every child's journey from Reception to Year 6 and beyond. From the first day at Scholes, children are immersed in a culture of reading - children will receive a home reading record to support this throughout their time at Scholes. In Reception to Year 4, children use reading records to keep track of their regular reading, while in upper Key Stage 2, children progress to use their planners in a more independent manner.
