Pupils begin the programme in the Spring term of Nursery, then the programme is taught in small groups with:

• All pupils in Year R and Year 1
• Any pupils in Years 2, 3 and 4 who are learning to read.

We assess and group pupils according to their progress in reading. In their groups, pupils:

• learn to read and write sounds
• read and spell words containing the sounds they have learnt
• read common exception words speedily
• read fiction and non-fiction books which closely match their phonic knowledge
• write about what they have read
• practise letter formation and handwriting.
