‘Sounds Write’ is the scheme used to teach phonics at Grove Park School.  All teachers and support staff have completed training.  Using a phonics scheme aids consistency of teaching approach, which gives pupils the best chance of success when learning to read. 

Phonics is taught on a daily basis across the school.

It is important to note, however, some of our learners need additional strategies to support their reading development, this may be whole word reading approaches alongside phonics.  For some learners, the focus is engagement and enjoyment of reading and exploring books.
