At Newbald Primary school, we intend that:

• All children know all phonics sounds by the end of Year 1 - There is no alternative to phonics. - All children make rapid catch up if needed
• All children to become confident, fluent readers and develop an enjoyment & love for reading.
• All children to be exposed to a wide vocabulary & have a deep understanding of texts that they read including knowledge of inference, prediction & retrieval.
• All children to read a variety of genres fiction, non-fiction & poetry that also expands the children’s wider curriculum knowledge
