Downside Primary School

 English at Downside

Our Intent

Our English curriculum is designed to inspire a lifelong love for language and literature. We foster a culture in which all of our learners take pride in their written and spoken language, empowering them to become articulate, confident and open-minded individuals who will thrive in the modern world. Through a well-sequenced curriculum, which is scaffolded to include all learners, we aim to inspire an appreciation of our ambitious and diverse literacy heritage.

 

Year 5 reading

In Year 5, children enjoy using Oxford reading Buddy and reading good old paper copies of books.
