Our Elloughton Vision:
For children to know more and be able to do more.
Curriculum

Each theme is developed to facilitate the mastery of core skills as well as providing pupils with opportunities to investigate, apply knowledge, solve problems think and learn at the highest levels. All our curriculum planning is designed to meet the statutory requirements of the Early Years and National Curriculum.

Our Approach
At Elloughton Primary School, phonics is taught throughout EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 (where required). The objectives are taken from The National Curriculum, as is the programme of study. Phonics is taught daily, in small groups appropriate to the needs of pupils.
Our phonic’s programme is consistent throughout the school and is based on a multisensory approach where pupil's listening, speaking and visual recognition are all being stimulated at the same time. This makes learning meaningful and long lasting.
We have adapted this approach using parts of the Jolly Phonics and the Read, Write, Inc. schemes. Every phonics session follows the same structure where pupils revisit previous skills, learn something new, practise this and then apply their learning through short reading and writing tasks.
National Phonic Screening
All children in Year One will be screened using the National Assessment materials in the summer term. The test usually takes place in June and consists of children reading 40 words which are a variety of real and pseudo (made up) words.
If a child in Year One does not reach the required level then additional support will be put in place in order for the child to make accelerated progress with their reading and writing. They will be retested when they are in Year Two. This data will be submitted to the local Authority.
Reading Scheme
We following Pearson's Bug Club for our reading scheme. The books that children read are phonically decodable and closely matched to the phonics teaching to enable application of newly taught graphemes. Children will also have the opportunity to read books that are slightly more challenging to ensure exposure to a range of genres, themes and more challenging vocabulary.
