English - Phonics

Teaching: At St. Malachy's, we use 'Read Write Inc.' as our Systematic Synthetic Phonics program. This program is followed with rigor and fidelity by all teachers and teaching assistants. Phonics lessons are taught to all children, daily in Years 1, 2 and Reception. To ensure that learning is embedded, flashcards and reading opportunities continue throughout the day and additional phonics teaching is given to identified children. Phonics remains the main strategy that we use to approach/decode unfamiliar words and spelling across the school.
