Intent

 

• All children at Nansen Primary School will learn to read with accuracy and fluency, regardless of their background, needs or abilities.
• All pupils will successfully pass the phonics screening check ensuring that all children have learnt phonic decoding to the expected standard.

• 1 to 1 tutoring targeting unique gaps in the lowest, slowest progress children (Years R to 4).
• Coaching for all reading tutors, delivered daily, by the reading leader.
• Masterclass coaching sessions, delivered weekly, by the reading leader.
• Development days with RWI consultant – monthly/half termly.
• Half termly assessments to assess children’s phonics and reading ability.
• Year 1 PSC assessments (Nov, Feb, May)
• Story time (daily) to embed pleasure for read and a love of books across the whole school.
