Spelling Overview

Welcome to the Spelling section, where we delve into the intricacies of language to foster strong spelling skills in our students. Here, you will discover a comprehensive overview and long-term plans that guide our approach to spelling education.

From our overarching aims that span across the school to the specific rules and sounds students will explore in each year group, our curriculum is designed to build a solid foundation in spelling. We believe that a mastery of spelling is not just about correctness; it’s about empowering our learners to communicate effectively and confidently in the written form.

Explore the journey of spelling development with us, from fundamental phonics to advanced word structures. We take pride in equipping our students with the tools they need to become proficient spellers and confident writers.
