Intent

The English curriculum is designed to build a secure understanding and develop  skills to prepare the children for life and learning beyond our Infant school. Children  will have a sound understanding of phonics and will use code knowledge and skills  to read texts. Children will have a growing knowledge of texts which they read of  their own volition. From being confident speakers with an ever increasing  vocabulary; the children will be competent and independent writers.
