Read Write Inc.
At St. Edward's, we use the, "Read, Write Inc," phonic scheme to teach our children to read and write. We hold a reading evening for new YF parents each September, where we go through how this scheme is taught
and used in school. you can see from the Y1 phonic results below, how successful we are with this scheme, which is well embedded in our school.
