Systematic synthetic phonics
In Reception and KS1 we base our teaching of phonics on the Jolly Phonics & Jolly Grammar schemes of work, alongside strategies from Letters & Sounds to teach letter/phoneme recognition, decoding, encoding and early punctuation and grammar.
After the initial introduction to the first 44 phonemes (sounds), the children are flexibly grouped based on their learning needs. Use of this scheme continues into Key Stage Two for some of our children, where it is assessed that this will support their learning appropriately.
