‘Literacy is the jump off point, from which all life’s successes take flight.’ Lauri Fortino
‘Reading is the gateway for children that makes all other learning possible’. Barack Obama
We truly believe that literacy skills are the key to unlocking learning for all children. Our aim at Malcolm Sargent Primary School is to provide learners with a solid foundation of literacy skills and knowledge which they can build on throughout their education, with us and beyond. We want to support our students to reach their potential through an imaginative and creative learning environment. In this curriculum guide you will find information about how we teach our reading, writing, spelling (including grammar and punctuation) and phonics.
