Phonics is the correspondence between spoken sound (phoneme) and the written letter (grapheme).  In our school we use Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised (DfE Aproved Phonics Teaching Programme). Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised has been built around the update (Department for Education – Letters and Sounds improving rates of progress 2021) that was funded by the Department for Education, as well as drawing on the latest research into how children learn best, how to ensure learning stays in children’s long term memory and how best to enable children to apply their learning to become highly competent readers.

We run Phonic and Reading workshops to support parents throughout the year and you can find further information by visiting the 'For Parents' section of the Little Wandle website.
