Phonics
Intent
At Town Field Primary school, we believe that every child can be a reader. From the start of their learning journey with us, we encourage our children to develop a love of reading.
We aim for all our children to become enthusiastic, fluent and confident readers regardless of their background, needs or abilities. Pupils receive rapid and targeted intervention if they need support to meet age-related expectations. This will provide them with the necessary tools to become successful, independent readers.
Town Field Primary serves a rich and diverse community and we believe that books are a powerful tool to enable our children to look out into, and understand, the world around them. We celebrate this diversity throughout the exploration of a range of high quality and age appropriate stories, poems, rhymes and non-fiction texts: this will develop their vocabulary, language comprehension and a love of reading.
