Foundation/Key Stage 1

Children first learn their letter sounds and names then apply these to word building. We use both Letters and Sounds and Jolly Phonics as the basis for our teaching of phonics. These are both recognised as synthetic phonic schemes. The children also learn a variety of other key words by sight.

Click below to view a guide to phonics phases 1-6 which includes all of the sounds that the children cover, as well as ways to help with learning phonics at home.
