English - Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling

English lessons throughout Key Stage 2 are planned using a range of high quality texts, film clips, or current issues to engage children in their learning, covering a broad range of genre and text-types. In Key Stage 1, teaching and learning in English is sometimes planned around the topic being covered in the foundation subjects. A strong emphasis is placed on ‘extended writing and real life scenarios’ – giving children a real-life purpose for their writing in order to engage and enthuse. The teaching of grammar, punctuation and spelling is embedded within English lessons and is also delivered discretely to support pupil progress in these basic skills.
