English (inc Phonics)

The aim of our English curriculum at Moseley Church of England Primary is to promote high standards of language and literacy by equipping every child with a strong command of the spoken and written word, and developing their love of literature through widespread reading for enjoyment.

The National Curriculum breaks English up into different strands –

  • Spoken language and listening skills
  • Reading – word reading and comprehension
  • Writing - transcription (spelling and handwriting) 
  •             - composition (articulating ideas and structuring them in speech and writing)
  • Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar

Our aim

We aim for excellence in English achievement throughout the school. We aim to develop pupils’ abilities within an integrated programme of Speaking & Listening, Reading and Writing. Pupils will be given opportunities to develop their use, knowledge and understanding of spoken and written English within a broad and balanced curriculum, with opportunities to consolidate and reinforce the English skills they have been taught.

  • reading and writing with confidence, fluency and understanding;
  • using a range of independent strategies to take responsibility for their own learning including self-monitoring and correcting their own errors;
  • with a love of reading and a desire to read for enjoyment;
  • with an interest in words and their meanings; developing a growing vocabulary in relation to grammatical terminology;
  • understanding a range of text types, media types and genres;
  • able to write in a variety of styles and forms appropriate to the situation;
  • using their developing creativity, imagination, inventiveness and critical awareness;
