Phonics at Lift Brockworth

Our principal aim is to develop the children’s phonological awareness, ability to segment and blend words to become fluent readers!

Children in Year 1 will complete the Phonic Screening Check during the summer term. We expect all of our children to pass the Phonic Screening Check and additional support is put in place for those children who require it. The children who do not achieve the pass mark in Year 1 will take the test in the following academic year, when they are in Year 2.

Read Write Inc

Read Write Inc is a DfE accredited phonics scheme that fully alligns with our aims. The RWI mission is below:

Our mission is to teach every child to read and write, and to keep them reading. No exceptions.

Our core mission is to galvanise headteachers and teachers to:

  1. put the teaching of reading at the heart of their schools and ensure teachers have the knowledge and determination to teach every child, regardless of age, background or need
  2. choose the best books to read aloud so children might read them for themselves
  3. place literature as a central pillar in establishing children’s identity, their place in the world and their understanding of their responsibilities and rights in relation to others.
