Writing
Our writing aim is to develop motivated and independent writers: those who write with understanding and purpose. As the children progress through the school their writing takes a clear journey. The purpose of their writing and who they are writing for is made clear to the children. Within each classroom there is a working wall with their learning journey and tiered words to support vocabulary development. Each year group has a writing overview that has been designed by the staff and influenced by our pupils’ interests. If you would like to find out more about what text your child is reading during their writing sessions, please click on the relevant link below.
