English

Subject Leader - Mrs Lupton

As part of our curriculum, English opportunities are planned through a variety of ways including through our high-quality texts or through other curriculum areas. Teachers have access to a variety of resources, which help to embellish planning and ensure the teaching of reading develops into writing opportunities. In English lessons, across both key stages, teachers plan a sequence of lessons that explore quality texts and give pupils the opportunity to practice writing and reading skills through the use of co-operative learning structures. Teachers model these skills on regular basis and planning, editing, publishing, and computing based tasks are planned and delivered as part of the teaching sequence. Writing is taught using the ‘Talk4Writing’ model.
