English Writing

Pupils’ ability to read, write and speak with confidence is the priority for all at Thatto Heath Community Primary School. These skills are imperative to ensuring that our pupils can participate fully as a member of society. Quality teaching and learning in English is an essential tool for the development of all of our pupils particularly those that are disadvantaged or have SEND.

The teaching of writing is a key priority throughout the school. Writing is an important medium for communication. It can provide creative pleasure and be an aid to effective learning. Children should develop a flexible and legible handwriting style that empowers them to be confident writers.
