English is both skills-focused and creative, nurturing confident readers, expressive writers, and articulate speakers. Lessons are alive with shared reading, imaginative writing, speaking and listening activities, and drawing to bring ideas to life. Pupils study inspiring texts and build lively folders of written work as their skills grow.
Beyond the classroom, children enjoy theatre trips, storytelling, drama, public speaking, and writing competitions. Our annual English results are consistently well above the national average, reflecting the creativity of our teaching and the enthusiasm of our pupils.
