Through a clearly structured phonics curriculum and quality teaching, we want every pupil to develop a secure understanding of the sounds which make words (phonemes) and the spellings that represent these sounds (graphemes) to ensure they are able to access their school learning with confidence. We want every pupil to be excited by the challenges of problem-solving the code of reading and writing, so that they are able to learn from mistakes in order to be skilful readers and writers. Our aim is that children leave Framfield with the secure understanding of what is needed to decode and encode successfully, so that they are able to read and write for the key stage 3 curriculum with confidence.
