Bringing Learning to Life through English

Our aim, through our English curriculum, is to support our learners to develop their love of literature, communication and the craft of writing as well as to have a skillset that will support them in other subjects and within the wider world. Through a stimulating and exciting curriculum, we aim to not only develop literacy skills but also promote confidence, emotional awareness, fluency, and resilience through a tailored curriculum.

Our multi-sensory approach incorporates cross-curricular, cultural and community opportunities such as total communication environments, individual reading time, synthetic phonics and progressive and child centered literature for all abilities, ages and interests. This includes sensory stories, immersive story telling events, visits with celebrated authors, book fairs, the sensory mark making programme ‘Squiggle Wiggle,’ Colourful semantics, Speech and Language therapy integration and a personalised long-term plan which ensures progress and a wide range and depth of learning.
