We aim for our pupils to:

  • speak clearly and confidently in any situation
  • listen actively and respond appropriately
  • read with increasing fluency, for both pleasure and information
  • use spelling rules, phonics and grammar
  • write, with confidence, in a range of genres
  • express opinions, articulate feelings and formulate responses to a range of texts
  • be interested in words and their meanings, and to develop a growing vocabulary
  • develop powers of imagination, creativity and a critical awareness in all areas of literacy
