The Year 3 team build upon the reading foundations established at Key Stage 1 using the same Read, Write, Inc phonics programme. This is taught with fidelity to the scheme, and children take a book home which is matched to their level to practise their reading skills.
All teachers identify gaps in phonic knowledge and provide high quality support to pupils to address them.
