Phonics 

We follow Lesley Clarke’s Letters and Sounds.  In Year 1 the main teaching focus is on Phase 5 – this is split into 3 parts: 5a, 5b and 5c. Please have a look here to find out more about the programme and ideas for ways to support your children in their learning at home. There are also workshops for parents to help you support your children with their phonics learning at home:
