English at St Joseph's
Welcome to the wonderful world of our curriculum in English.
“High-quality first teaching,” is a focus of our Literacy curriculum at St Joseph’s. It is an opportunity to empower children through reading and writing in a creative, immersive, and inspiring learning environment. We intend to make sure that our curriculum is fully inclusive to all!
For the progress of children, it is paramount that we expand our understanding constantly to ensure our literature is purposeful and engaging to successfully explore cultures, historical events, locality, social challenges and more. These insights into the wider world through reading enable children to gain greater understanding of society and make connections with their own beliefs, morals, and actions.
Providing consistency and quality teaching, the children are guided and motivated to develop their independence to write and read confidently allowing all aspects of Literacy to flourish. The progression of learning at St Joseph’s includes a range of aspects: reading and writing, spelling, punctuation, and grammar, speaking and listening, phonics and handwriting.
