The school has a well-equipped library. Pupils relish opportunities to explore reading through structured sensory play. When ready, pupils learn to read using phonics. Staff teach this with precision. They adapt the phonics programme to support pupils who are nonverbal with reading when necessary.”

“Reading for pleasure is a top priority for the school. Inviting libraries, class readers and interesting books across the curriculum help pupils to enjoy reading. As soon as children start in the Reception Year, they successfully learn the sounds that letters make. Pupils who find this difficult receive timely and effective support. As a result, pupils read with confidence, fluency and accuracy. This helps them to read widely across the curriculum. Children in the nursery and Reception class delight in reading with staff in their reading. Older pupils also enjoy reading with children in the Nursery and Reception Year, as well as with their peers. ”
