The Importance of Reading At Kings Meadow Primary School

The teaching of reading is of top priority at our school.  

We ensure that we are;

• Foster a love of reading and sharing stories, poems and rhymes to develop vocabulary and comprehension.
• Have a secure, systematic, synthetic phonics programme taught from the beginning of reception.
• Create opportunities for children to read and reread books that match the phonics stage taught.
• Effective use of assessment to quickly identify children who need targeted support.
